Ingredients
- 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
- 1 cup pecans
- ½ cup sweetened shredded coconut
- 3 bananas , peeled and mashed (should be very ripe)
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- ¼ cup buttermilk
- ¼ cup butter , 4 tablespoons, melted and slightly cooled
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Prepare a 12-cup or jumbo 6-cup muffin tin with paper liners or spray it with baking spray.
- Whisk the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt together in a medium size bowl. Add the coconut and pecans to the bowl with the dry ingredients and whisk once more to combine.
- Place mashed bananas and sugar in a large bowl and beat with a hand mixer on low until combined. Add the egg, buttermilk, melted butter, and vanilla, and beat until combined.
- Fold in the flour mixture with a wooden spoon or spatula. Fill the muffin tins just over halfway full or until the batter is evenly distributed. Sprinkle the tops with more coconut and pecans if desired.
- Bake the muffins for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the edges begin to pull away from the tin. Let cool on a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature, or freeze for up to 2 months.
