Simple directions:

You’ll have your banana bread muffins ready in just 7 steps. I know it seems like a lot, but believe me, these are simple and quick steps. Are you ready?

Step 1

Let’s start this amazing and delicious recipe!

Preheat your oven to 375°F. Line a 12-count muffin pan with muffin liners and set aside.

Step 2

In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.

Step 3

In a medium bowl, add the melted butter, brown sugar, and white sugar. Use a hand mixer on medium speed until the mixture is fluffy – about 2 minutes.

Step 4

Add the eggs and the vanilla to the previous mixture and mix again. Stir in the mashed bananas.

Step 5

Add the dry ingredients that you previously whisked into the banana mixture and stir until it’s combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter!

Step 6

Distribute the batter evenly between all the 12 liners in the muffin pan. Bake at 375°F for about 16-20 minutes or until you can insert a toothpick into the center of the muffins and it comes out clean.

Step 7

Remove the muffins from the pan and let them cool for about 5 minutes (still in the pan). Remove them carefully from the pan and let the muffins cool completely on a wire rack.
