Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 3 large Ripe bananas
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup Packed brown sugar
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup Chopped macadamia nuts
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease with cooking spray.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon. Set aside.
Step 3
In a medium mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth and slightly chunky. Add granulated sugar, brown sugar, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until fully combined.
Step 4
Gradually fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix gently until just combined—be careful not to overmix.
Step 5
Fold in the chopped macadamia nuts, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Step 6
Evenly divide the batter among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Step 8
Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
