      Equipment:

      • Mixing bowls (large and medium)
      • Muffin tin
      • Muffin liners or nonstick spray
      • Whisk or fork
      • Spatula

      Ingredients:

      • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
      • 1 teaspoon baking soda
      • ½ teaspoon baking powder
      • ½ teaspoon salt
      • 3 ripe bananas (mashed)
      • ⅓ cup unsalted butter (melted)
      • ½ cup granulated sugar
      • ¼ cup brown sugar (packed)
      • 1 large egg
      • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
      • ½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans (plus extra for topping)

       

       

      Instructions:

      1. Prepare the Oven and Muffin Tin:
        • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it with nonstick spray.
      2. Mix the Dry Ingredients:
        • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
      3. Combine the Wet Ingredients:
        • In a large bowl, mash the bananas until smooth. Stir in the melted butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
      4. Incorporate the Dry Ingredients:
        • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
      5. Fold in the Nuts:
        • Gently fold in the chopped nuts.
      6. Fill the Muffin Tin:
        • Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about ¾ full. Sprinkle extra nuts on top for added crunch.
      7. Bake:
        • Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
      8. Cool:
        • Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

      Presentation Ideas:

      • Serve warm with a pat of butter or cream cheese.
      • Pair with a steaming cup of coffee or tea for a cozy breakfast.
      • Arrange muffins in a basket lined with a colorful napkin for a brunch spread.

      Tips:

      • Use overripe bananas for the sweetest and most flavorful muffins.
      • Substitute walnuts with pecans, almonds, or a nut-free option like chocolate chips.
      • Store muffins in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
