Banana Muffins
Are you ready to bake these tasty muffins? They are so easy to make and delicious! Anytime you have ripe bananas or overripe bananas is the best time for making your muffins.
Summer weather can make bananas ripen quickly, so it’s easy to have ripe bananas on hand. If your bananas aren’t quite ripe, add them to a brown paper bag, close it up, and give them a day or two.
Use the banana muffins for breakfast, snacking, or add them to lunches… Pop them in the freezer to use later, if there are only a few of you in the house. I use freezer bags to store them, making sure all the air is squeezed out. Make sure they are fully cold before freezing.
What makes banana muffins taste good?
Use overripe bananas; they are naturally sweeter and softer.
When it comes to making muffins with bananas, the more the merrier? Yes, and no, you want almost equal amounts. For this recipe, you will need 4-5 ripe bananas.
Measure the flour level and do not increase the amount.
The addition of pure vanilla extract helps with the flavors, or the muffins can be a bit bland.
