Notes
- Use overripe bananas: For natural sweetness allows you to reduce the amount of added sugar in the recipe.
- Don’t use too much flour: When using cup measurements, first fluff it up in the bag. Use a spoon to transfer it to the measuring cup, leveling it with the back of a knife.
- Don’t over-mix the batter: This will overdevelop the gluten and can lead to dense, rubbery/gummy muffins.
