Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 3 large ripe bananas, mashed
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 unit large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup milk
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon. Set aside.
In a separate medium bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork or potato masher until smooth.
Add the melted butter, large egg, vanilla extract, and milk to the mashed bananas, mixing until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold together using a spatula or wooden spoon. Mix just until combined; do not overmix.
Evenly scoop the muffin batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling them 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 before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your moist and flavorful nut-free banana muffins!
