Banana Bread Muffins

hese moist banana muffins are made with ripe bananas, giving them a natural sweetness and soft texture.

Ingredients

  • 2 ripe bananas mashed
  • 1/2 cup sugar adjust to taste
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 1 large egg beaten
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • Optional: 1/2 cup chopped nuts or chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups.
  • Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix the mashed bananas with melted butter. Stir in the sugar, beaten egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  • Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  • Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the banana mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
  • Add Optional Ingredients: If desired, fold in nuts or chocolate chips.
  • Fill Muffin Cups: Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full.
  • Bake: Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Cool: Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
