Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium ripe bananas
- 75 grams unsalted butter
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 50 grams brown sugar
- 1 unit large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 150 grams all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 75 grams chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a 12-cup muffin tin by lining with paper liners or lightly greasing each cup.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas with a fork until smooth. Set aside.
Melt the unsalted butter either in the microwave or on the stovetop and let it cool slightly before adding it to the bananas.
Stir the granulated sugar, brown sugar, egg, and vanilla extract into the banana mixture until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the flour mixture to the banana mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the muffins dense.
Fold in the chopped nuts gently to distribute them evenly throughout the batter.
Evenly divide the batter among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and let the muffins cool for 5 minutes in the tin before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely or enjoy warm.
