Tips:
- Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your muffins will be.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing will make your muffins tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Fill the muffin cups only 2/3 full: This will prevent them from overflowing in the oven.
- Bake the muffins at a high temperature: This will help them rise quickly and evenly.
- Let the muffins cool completely before frosting: This will help the frosting to set properly.
