Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 3/4 cup dark brown sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 cups smashed bananas (about 4 to 6 bananas)
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup milk
- 2 large eggs, at room temperature
- 1/8 teaspoon fine salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 3/4 cups chopped walnuts
Directions
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Lightly brush a 12-muffin tin with butter and set aside.
Whisk the flour, baking soda, brown sugar, and cinnamon together in a medium bowl; set aside.
Whisk the banana, oil, milk, eggs, salt, and vanilla in a large measuring cup with a spout or another bowl.
Make a small well in the center of the dry ingredients. Pour wet ingredients into the center; then stir with a wooden spoon until the dry ingredients are moistened but still lumpy. Do not overmix the batter or your muffins will come out dense. Gently stir in the nuts. Divide the batter evenly into the muffin tin.
Put the muffins in the oven and immediately reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees F. Bake until golden brown, about 25 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through the cooking. (Insert a toothpick into the center of a muffin to check if it is done. Toothpick should come out clean). Cool muffins in the pan on a rack for a couple minutes. Turn the muffins out of the pan and cool on the rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Very, very bland. There is no taste to my muffins at all. I can see where adding chocolate chips would make them a lot better but next time I make a banana muffin I will look for a different recipe.

My family LOVES when I make this recipe. I follow the recipe exactly, but instead of nuts, I add an entire 10 oz bag of chocolate chips. Chocolate and banana in every bite. YUM! I never use baking powder and it always rises and comes out wonderful. I am not sure where people get the idea it has no flavor. With this recipe, you add 2 cups of bananas (4-6 bananas. With other recipes you add 2-3 bananas. I LOVE THIS RECIPE! My family begs me to make it.

Nice moist tasty muffins. I altered it a little, using 2 c. flour, 1/2 c. flax seed meal ad 1/3 c. bran. You really don't notice the change.
