Ingredients

• 3 large Ripe bananas
• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.5 cups Granulated sugar
• 0.25 cups Light brown sugar
• 0.5 cups Unsalted butter
• 2 Eggs
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoons Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 2 tablespoons Milk
• 0.5 cups Chopped walnuts or chocolate chips (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.

Step 2

In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsalted butter and let it cool slightly, about 2 minutes.

Step 3

Mash the ripe bananas in the bowl with the melted butter until smooth and no large chunks remain.

Step 4

Add the granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, and milk to the banana mixture. Whisk until well combined.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.

Step 6

Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula or wooden spoon. Stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix.

Step 7

If using chopped walnuts or chocolate chips, gently fold them into the batter.

Step 8

Evenly divide the batter 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

Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.

Step 11

Enjoy your moist and flavorful Jude's Banana Muffins with a cup of coffee or tea!
