Quick & Easy Banana Muffins ✨

Quick & Easy Banana Muffins

Can't believe how good these turned out! Soft, buttery, and spiced with cinnamon—perfect for breakfast or a snack. 🍌🧁

You'll need:

1½ cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon baking soda

½ teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg

1½ cups mashed bananas (about 3 large ripe bananas)

6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

⅔ cup packed light or dark brown sugar

1 large egg, at room temperature

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

2 tablespoons milk

Optional: 1 cup chopped walnuts, pecans, or chocolate chips

Steps:

Preheat your oven to 425°F (218°C). Line a 12-count muffin pan with liners or spray with nonstick spray.

In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.

In a large bowl, mash the bananas. Add melted butter, brown sugar, egg, vanilla extract, and milk; whisk until combined.

Pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and mix until just combined. If using nuts or chocolate chips, fold them in now.

Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling them to the top.

Bake for 5 minutes at 425°F, then reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (177°C) and continue baking for 16–18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Let me know how yours turn out!

... Read moreBanana muffins are a beloved treat, blending the familiar comfort of muffins with the sweet, rich flavor of ripe bananas. Not only are they incredibly easy to make, but they also provide a wonderful way to use overripe bananas that might otherwise go to waste. For the best results, choose bananas that are well-spotted and soft. They should yield to gentle pressure; this will enhance the sweetness and moisture of your muffins. Adding ingredients like walnuts, chocolate chips, or even a touch of peanut butter can elevate your muffins to new flavor heights. Each ingredient plays a role: the baking powder and soda help them rise, while the melted butter adds richness and moisture. When preparing your banana muffins, it's essential to mix the dry and wet ingredients separately before combining them. This helps to avoid overmixing, which can lead to dense muffins. Instead, aim for just combined batter—some lumps are perfectly fine! Remember, the baking time can vary based on your oven and the size of your muffin pan, so keep an eye on them after the initial bake. Following these tips will result in soft, fluffy banana muffins that are sure to please your family and friends!

Instead of butter, can you use avocado oil?
