Zucchini Banana Bread Muffins with Coconut Brown Sugar Cinnamon Topping

Last weekend I went home to Gettysburg and stopped at one of the many local produce stands.  Among all of the fall pumpkins, quash, and apples, I came across the last of some summer zucchini.  I wasn’t sure what I was going to make with it, then I got back to my apartment I realized I had some brown bananas that need to be used.  I decided to make a zucchini banana hybrid bread.
