Easy Banana Muffin Recipe Turns Overripe Bananas Into Delicious Treats

If you have ripe bananas at home and are unsure what to do with them, banana muffins offer a perfect solution. These muffins are soft, sweet, easy to prepare, and fill your home with a wonderful aroma. You can make them plain or add chocolate chips for an extra indulgence.

The recipe yields about 12 muffins and requires 3 ripe bananas, 2 eggs, half a cup of sugar, one-third cup of oil, one teaspoon of vanilla extract, one and a half cups of flour, one teaspoon of baking powder, half a teaspoon of baking soda, a pinch of salt, and optionally half a teaspoon of cinnamon.

To prepare, preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius and line a muffin tin with paper cups. Mash the bananas thoroughly in a bowl, then add eggs, sugar, oil, and vanilla extract, mixing well. Gently fold in the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon until the batter is uniform. Fill each muffin cup about three-quarters full and bake for 18 to 22 minutes until golden and a toothpick inserted comes out with a few moist crumbs.

After baking, let the muffins cool for a few minutes before enjoying these soft and tasty banana treats.
