Note: To make regular sized muffins, bake for 20 - 25 minutes in a 350 degree oven.
Ingredients
  • 2 - 3 ripe bananas
  • ⅓ cup melted butter
  • ⅔ cup sugar (I use ⅓ cup brown and ⅓ cup coconut sugar. The recipe works with ½ cup and up to 1 cup of sugar, depending on how sweet and which flavor profile you prefer.)
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • pinch of salt
  • 1½ cups all purpose flour
  • ½ tsp cinnamon (optional)
  • ¼ tsp nutmeg (optional)
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and butter a 4x8 loaf pan.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas.
  3. Next, stir in the melted butter then add in the baking soda and salt.
  4. Mix in the sugar, egg, and vanilla well.
  5. Add in the flour, ⅓ at a time using a folding technique to create a smooth batter.
  6. Pour the batter into the loaf pan and bake for 50 minutes to 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean.
  7. Cool completely on a wire rack before removing from the loaf pan.
Notes
To make regular sized muffins, bake for 20 - 25 minutes in a 350 degree oven.
