HIGH-ALTITUDE BANANA BREAD
Since we live in Colorado, I am always on the lookout for high-altitude bread recipes. Much easier than worrying about conversions or hoping that a recipe designed for sea-level will turn out! This one turns out great every time! You can also add about 1/2 c of chopped nuts, dried fruit, and/or chocolate chips.

HIGH-ALTITUDE BANANA BREAD WITH CRUMB TOPPING
This banana bread is great with or without the crumb topping. I like to bake it in a cake pan instead of a loaf pan so it seems extra fancy.

Steps:
- For the bread:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F, and grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan. In a large bowl, beat together the softened butter and granulated sugar until smooth. Add the eggs, mashed banana, water, and vanilla and mix to combine. In another bowl, combine the flour, salt, baking soda, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture and beat until combined. Fold in the chopped walnuts, and pour the batter into your prepared pan, spreading it evenly
- For the crumb topping:
- In a bowl, mix the flour, brown sugar, oats, walnuts, melted butter, cinnamon, and salt together with a fork until medium crumbs form. If yours comes out too dry, add a teaspoon of water. If it's too wet, add a teaspoon of flour. Evenly sprinkle the crumb mixture over the top of the batter.
- Bake for 40 minutes. Then place a piece of foil over the top to prevent overbrowning, and bake until a cake tester inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean, 10 to 15 minutes longer. Cool in the pan completely before removing. Cut into wedges and serve.

KING ARTHUR FLOUR'S BANANA CRUMB MUFFINS
A hearty loaf of banana bread is an excellent way to use up a pile of leftover bananas, but sometimes you want a lighter option. These tender banana muffins are crowned with a delightfully crunchy cinnamon crumb topping that lends to their addictive nature. The easy recipe, which doesn't require any special equipment - just a couple of bowls - was adapted from one originally developed by a 9-year old named Meghan Cwikla. With it, she won the junior division at the 1997 State Baking Contest at the Connecticut State Fair.

Tips:
- Adjust the Ingredients: High altitude baking requires adjustments to account for the lower atmospheric pressure. In this recipe, reduce the baking soda and baking powder by 1/4 teaspoon each, decrease the sugar by 1/4 cup, and slightly reduce the amount of milk.
- Use Room Temperature Ingredients: This helps in even mixing and smoother batter.
- Fill the Muffin Cups Properly: Fill each cup about 2/3 full to prevent overflowing during baking.
- Watch the Baking Time: Bake for a few minutes less than the recommended time. Check the muffins with a toothpick - it should come out clean when inserted into the center of a muffin.
- Let Them Cool: Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

These high-altitude banana crumb muffins are a delightful treat that combines the classic flavors of banana bread with a sweet and crunchy crumb topping.
