Banana Muffins Recipe
Description
Banana Muffins Recipe combines mashed ripe bananas, sugar, and melted butter with a balanced mix of flour, baking powder, and baking soda to create soft, flavorful muffins. The recipe includes a cinnamon sugar topping sprinkled on each muffin before baking, adding a sweet, aromatic crust. The baking method involves mixing wet and dry ingredients separately and gently folding them together to maintain a tender texture. Baking at 350°F ensures even cooking and a golden exterior.
The muffins have a moist center due to the bananas, complemented by a slight crisp from the cinnamon sugar on top. This makes them a satisfying option for on-the-go eating or a quick homemade breakfast. They keep fresh for several days when stored properly and can be frozen to extend shelf life.
For best results, use ripe bananas for sweetness and moisture. The muffins are baked in standard muffin or mini muffin pans depending on desired size and cooked until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. This recipe yields a straightforward, fruit-forward muffin with a pleasant cinnamon note.
Ingredients
- 1½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 3 large banana mashed, ripe
- ¾ cup sugar
- 1 egg
- ⅓ cup butter melted
Cinnamon Sugar Mixture
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 tablespoons cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Prepare a muffin pan by greasing it with cooking spray or inserting cupcake liners.
- In a bowl, sift flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, mix together bananas, sugar, egg, and melted butter. Fold in flour mixture, and stir until smooth. Scoop batter into greased muffin cups. Sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar.

Notes

- Freezing in a freezer-safe bag preserves muffins for longer storage; thaw on the counter or warm gently in a microwave before serving.
