Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar (or brown sugar for a richer flavor)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 4 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup buttermilk or regular milk

 

  • Optional: ½ cup chopped walnuts or chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat the Oven
    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
    Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it with butter or non-stick spray.

  • Mix Dry Ingredients
    In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

  • Prepare Wet Ingredients
    In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
    Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
    Stir in the mashed bananas and vanilla extract.

  • Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients
    Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk (or regular milk), beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined—be careful not to overmix.
    If desired, fold in the chopped walnuts or chocolate chips.

  • Fill Muffin Tin
    Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.

  • Bake
    Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with just a few crumbs.

 

  • Cool and Enjoy
    Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For a vegan version, substitute the eggs with flax eggs or another egg replacement, and use non-dairy milk and butter.
  • If you prefer, you can replace the walnuts or chocolate chips with other add-ins, such as dried fruit or seeds.
  • These cupcakes are perfect for breakfast or as a snack!
