Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1½ cups mashed bananas
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- ¼ cup whole milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 cup walnuts chopped and divided
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350℉ and line your muffin tin with liners.
- In a bowl, add flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Mix together and set aside.
- In another bowl, add bananas, sugar, oil, milk, and vanilla. Mix together and set aside.
- Add the mixed wet ingredients to the bowl with the dry ingredients and mix well, then fold in ¾ cup of the chopped walnuts.
- Add muffin liners to a muffin tin. Scoop about ¼ cup of the batter into each muffin line, then sprinkle the remaining chopped walnuts on top.
- Bake for 20 minutes, and let them cool before eating.
Notes
- Use very ripe bananas; they add natural sweetness and keep the muffins moist.
- Fold the wet and dry ingredients together gently to avoid dense muffins.
- Measure flour carefully using the spoon-and-level method to ensure the right texture.
- Stir in walnuts at the end so they stay evenly distributed and add crunch.
