Description
Prep time: 15 minutes
Cook time: 20 minutes
Total time: 35 minutes
Yields: 12-14 muffins
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled)
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 1/2 cups of mashed bananas (about 3 large bananas)
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
2/3 cup + 2 tablespoons light or dark brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons of vanilla extract
1 large egg
4 tablespoons of plain greek yogurt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (218°C). Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
In a stand mixer, mash your bananas. Add butter, brown sugar, vanilla extract, egg, and plain greek yogurt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients.
Using an ice cream scoop, spoon the batter into the prepared cupcake liners. Bake for 5 minutes at 425°F (218°C), then lower the oven to 350°F (177°C) and bake for another 15 minutes. Remove the muffins from the tins and let them sit for a few minutes.
Notes
Optional: you can add 1 cup of chopped walnuts or mini chocolate chips to the batter for added flavor and texture.
Greek yogurt: This helps activate the baking soda in your batter, keeping your muffins moist and fluffy for a longer period of time.
