Ingredients

• 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.75 cups granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 3 medium bananas (ripe, mashed)
• 0.5 cups sour cream
• 0.25 cups unsalted butter (melted)
• 1 unit large egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it with nonstick cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

Step 3

In a separate medium-sized bowl, mash the ripe bananas until mostly smooth. Add the sour cream, melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract. Mix until the wet ingredients are fully blended.

Step 4

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the bowl of dry ingredients. Gently fold the mixture together using a spatula, being careful not to overmix. Stop mixing as soon as no dry streaks of flour remain.

Step 5

Evenly spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about three-quarters full.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Step 7

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

Step 8

Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftover muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
