Ingredients

• 3 large ripe bananas
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.75 cup granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup unsalted butter
• 2 pieces large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 cup milk

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups lightly with butter or cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large bowl, mash the ripe bananas thoroughly with a fork or potato masher until smooth.

Step 3

Melt the unsalted butter in the microwave or on the stovetop, then let it cool slightly. Add the melted butter to the mashed bananas and stir to combine.

Step 4

Whisk in the sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, and milk until fully combined and smooth.

Step 5

In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt.

Step 6

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are fine.

Step 7

Divide the muffin batter evenly among the 12 prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.

Step 8

Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Step 9

Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Enjoy your freshly baked Nana Muffins warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
