Ingredients to make banana bread muffins

  • Ripe bananas: I like the ones that are very spotted like pictured below. The riper they are, the sweeter the bananas will be.
  • Unsalted butter: I like the flavor of butter in these muffins, but oil will also work as a substitute if needed.
  • Eggs
  • Vanilla extract
  • Cinnamon
  • All-purpose flour
  • Salt
  • Baking soda
  • Sugar

How to make banana bread muffins

First, preheat your oven to 375 degrees.

Line a muffin tin with muffin liners. My favorite liners to use are parchment paper muffin liners, as nothing will stick to them at all. No need to spray them or anything!

Step 1: Add the melted butter, sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, and mashed bananas to a large bowl. Stir or whisk well to combine.

Step 2: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, baking soda, and cinnamon.

Step 3: Add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix until just combined. Be careful not to over mix the batter as this will result in dense muffins.

Step 4: Add the banana muffin batter into the lined muffin tins, then bake the muffins at 375 degrees for 17-19 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

Step 5: Remove the muffins onto a wire cooling rack to cool completely.

These are the perfect moist banana muffin recipe. Serve them warm with a little pat of butter on top!

These would make a great grab and go breakfast, mid morning snack, or afternoon pick me up! I love enjoying one with my afternoon coffee.
