Tips:
- Use ripe bananas: Overripe bananas add natural sweetness and moisture to the muffins, reducing the need for added sugar and oil.
- Measure flour correctly: Use the spoon and level method to measure flour to avoid adding too much, which can result in dense muffins.
- Mix wet and dry ingredients separately: This helps to ensure that the ingredients are evenly distributed and prevents overmixing, which can toughen the muffins.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in tough muffins. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: Overbaking can dry out the muffins.
- Let the muffins cool completely before storing: This helps to prevent the muffins from becoming soggy.
