Notes

  • Use very ripe bananas with plenty of brown spots for the best sweetness and moisture.
  • Mix the batter just until combined; overmixing can lead to dense muffins.
  • Fill muffin cups about 3/4 full so the muffins rise evenly without overflowing.
  • Begin checking for doneness a few minutes early by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean.
