Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease with cooking spray.
Peel and mash the ripe bananas in a large mixing bowl until smooth.
Stir in the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until well combined.
Add the egg and vanilla extract, and whisk together until the mixture is smooth.
In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined (do not overmix).
Using a spoon or an ice cream scoop, divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 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 let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely or enjoy warm.
Store any leftover muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
