    Place 1 1/2 cups cereal in resealable food-storage plastic bag; seal bag. Using rolling pin, slightly crush cereal; set aside. In medium bowl, place muffin mix, milk and oil. Stir in egg and banana just until moistened (batter will be lumpy). Stir in crushed cereal. Divide batter evenly among muffin cups. Sprinkle streusel evenly over tops (about 1 teaspoonful each).

Expert Tips

  • tip 1
    Unlike most muffin mixes that tell you to fill the muffin cups two-thirds full, it's important to fill the cups in this recipe three-fourths full or almost full. If you don't, you'll wind up with leveled muffins!
  • tip 2
    Add 1/4 cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips with the banana, if desired.
