Notes
- Use ripe bananas with black spots for the best flavor.
- Toss add ins with a bit of flour before adding to the batter, this helps so they don’t sink to the bottom of the batter.
- Do not add extra bananas, this can make the batter too heavy and dense.
- Do not overmix batter, it should be mixed just until moistened.
- Fill muffin cups only 1/2 to 2/3 full.
- Do not overbake, ovens can vary so be sure to check muffins a few minutes before they should be done. If a toothpick comes out clean, they are done.
