Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup mashed ripe bananas Use very ripe bananas for the best flavor.
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar Feel free to decrease for a less sweet muffin.
- 0.5 cup butter, melted Unsalted butter works best.
- 2 large eggs Room temperature eggs blend better.
- 1 tsp baking soda Make sure it's fresh for the best rise.
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 1 cup chopped nuts Walnuts or pecans are great choices.
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly. In a large bowl, combine the mashed bananas and melted butter, mixing well.
- Add the sugar, eggs, and vanilla to the banana mixture, stirring until everything is combined. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Slowly fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just blended. Be careful not to overmix!
- Finally, gently fold in the chopped nuts. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups.
- Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. Let them cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Notes
These muffins are best enjoyed fresh, but they can also be stored in an airtight container for a few days. For a fun twist, try adding chocolate chips!
