Ingredients

• 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.75 cups granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 2 medium ripe bananas, mashed
• 0.25 cups unsalted butter, melted
• 1 large egg
• 2 tablespoons dark rum
• 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
• 1 teaspoon lime zest
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners, or lightly grease the cups with non-stick cooking spray.

Step 2

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a separate large bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Add the melted butter, egg, rum, lime juice, lime zest, and vanilla extract, and mix until fully combined.

Step 4

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can lead to dense muffins.

Step 5

Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling them about three-quarters full.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Step 7

Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 8

Serve warm or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage.
