Ingredients

• 3 medium ripe bananas
• 1.5 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 cup granulated sugar
• 0.25 cup brown sugar
• 2 items large eggs
• 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with muffin liners or lightly grease with non-stick spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork until smooth. Set aside.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt. Whisk together to ensure even distribution of the ingredients.

Step 4

Add the granulated sugar and brown sugar to the mashed bananas, mixing until combined.

Step 5

Stir in the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.

Step 6

Pour in the melted butter and vanilla extract, stirring to incorporate all the wet ingredients thoroughly.

Step 7

Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix to ensure tender muffins.

Step 8

Divide the muffin batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Step 10

Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Enjoy the gluten-free banana bread muffins warm or at room temperature.
