Ingredients
- 3 large Bananas (ripe)
- 150 g Granulated sugar
- 50 g Brown sugar
- 80 g Unsalted butter (melted and cooled)
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 240 g All-purpose flour
- 1 tsp Baking soda
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 60 ml Milk
- 100 g Chocolate chips or nuts (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas with a fork or potato masher until smooth.
Step 3
Add the granulated sugar, brown sugar, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas, and whisk until well combined.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing to ensure the muffins remain tender.
Step 6
Stir in the milk to loosen the batter. If using chocolate chips or nuts, fold them in gently at this stage.
Step 7
Evenly distribute the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven 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 pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Enjoy warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage.
