Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large ripe bananas
- 150 grams granulated sugar
- 50 grams light brown sugar
- 115 grams unsalted butter
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 250 grams all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoon ground cloves
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 60 milliliters milk
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
In a large bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Set aside.
Melt the unsalted butter and let it cool slightly. Add the melted butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Whisk until thoroughly combined.
In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt.
Gently fold the dry ingredients into the banana mixture, being careful not to overmix. The batter should be slightly lumpy.
Add the milk and fold it in to loosen the batter slightly.
Evenly divide the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your delicious spiced banana muffins!
