Steps:

To Make the Muffins: Preheat oven to 400 degrees and line a muffin tin with liners. Spray the liners lightly with cooking spray. In a large bowl whisk together the flour, graham cracker crumbs, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. In a separate bowl mash the 2 bananas. To the mashed bananas whisk in the honey, Greek yogurt, buttermilk, egg, and vanilla. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and fold together with a rubber spatula just until combined, careful not to over mix. Fill the muffin cups with the batter until they are about 3/4 of the way full.
To Make the Graham Cracker Crumb Topping: In a small bowl whisk together the graham cracker crumbs, flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Pour the melted butter into the dry mixture and stir together with a spatula until they come together and are completely covered with the butter. Sprinkle about a teaspoon or so of the crumbs on top of the filled muffin cups.
Bake the muffins on the middle rack of a 400 degree oven for 14-16 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the muffin comes out clean. Cool the muffins on a wire rack. Serve the muffins once they have cooled slightly or store them in an airtight container for 2-3 days.
