Ingredients

  • 3 medium ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1 large ripe banana, mashed
  • 1/3 cup butter, melted
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup dark brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon, or more to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, or more to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Method

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line cups with paper liners.
  • Combine bananas, melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract in a bowl. Sift in brown sugar. Mix well and set aside.
  • Sift all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt into a separate bowl. Slowly fold flour mixture into the banana mixture, being careful not to overmix.
  • Scoop batter evenly into the muffin cups.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until tops spring back when lightly pressed, 20 to 27 minutes. Remove from the muffin tin and let cool.
