Ingredients

• 3 ripe bananas
• 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 0.5 cup granulated sugar
• 0.25 cup brown sugar, packed
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1.75 cups all-purpose flour
• 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.75 cup shredded sweetened coconut
• 0.25 cup milk

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the wells lightly with butter or non-stick spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth using a fork or potato masher.

Step 3

Stir in the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until well combined.

Step 4

Add in the eggs and vanilla extract, whisking until the mixture is smooth and cohesive.

Step 5

In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Step 6

Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients in three additions, mixing gently after each addition until just combined. Avoid overmixing.

Step 7

Fold in the shredded coconut, ensuring it's evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 8

Finally, stir in the milk to loosen the batter slightly, creating a smooth consistency.

Step 9

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

Step 10

Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Step 11

Allow the muffins to cool in the muffin tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 12

Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy the tropical sweetness of these banana coconut muffins!
