Brown Sugar-Banana Coffee Cakes
- 2 14 cups all-purpose flour, divided
- 1 34 cups brown sugar, divided
- 12 teaspoon salt, divided
- 14 cup butter, cold
- 14 cup butter, at room temperature
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon vanilla
- 12 cup mashed ripe banana
- 2 tablespoons baking powder
- 14 cup sour cream
- To make streusel mixture, in a food processor or a bowl, whirl or mix 3/4 cup flour, 3/4 cup brown sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Cut 1/4 cup cold butter into chunks and add to bowl; pulse mixture or cut in butter with a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Set aside.
- (Note: to save time in the morning when you are making these, you could do the streusel up to a few days ahead, and store in a zipped baggy in the refrigerator).
- In a bowl, with a mixer on high speed, beat remaining 1/4 cup butter and remaining 1 cup brown sugar until smooth.
- Beat in eggs and vanilla, scraping down sides of bowl as necessary, until well blended.
- Beat in mashed bananas.
- In a small bowl, stir together remaining 1 1/2 cups flour, baking powder, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Stir into banana mixture.
- Gently fold in sour cream until well blended.
- Grease and flour muffin pans: either a 6-cup jumbo muffin pan, or 18 regular muffin cups.
- Divide batter equally among the 6 jumbo (1-cup capacity) or 18 regular (1/3-cup capacity) pans, filling each halfway.
- Sprinkle streusel evenly over tops of cakes (crumble the streusel first if it sticks together).
- Bake in a 350 regular or convection oven until streusel is browned and a wooden skewer inserted into the center of a cake comes out with moist crumbs attached, 18 to 25 minutes.
- Cool 5 minutes in cups, then invert pan to remove.
- Serve warm or let cool completely.
