Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cups granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 2 medium ripe bananas, mashed
- 0.25 cups unsalted butter, melted
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons dark rum
- 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
- 1 teaspoon lime zest
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners, or lightly grease the cups with non-stick cooking spray.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a separate large bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Add the melted butter, egg, rum, lime juice, lime zest, and vanilla extract, and mix until fully combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can lead to dense muffins.
Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling them about three-quarters full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage.
