Banana Nut Muffins

Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 25 minutes
Total Time 35 minutes
Serves 24 muffins

Ingredients  

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup bananas (2 large very ripe bananas, mashed)
  • 1/2 cup walnuts chopped fine
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour

Instructions

  • Heat oven to 375℉.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, cream together the 1/2 cup of soft butter and 1 cup sugar until smooth. Add 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla, 1 cup of mashed bananas, 2 eggs, and 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts. Mix thoroughly.
  • In a separate bowl, mix together 1 teaspoon of baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1 1/2 cups of flour. Add the combined dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until all the flour is combined.
  • Spoon 1 1/2 tbsp of batter into cupcake liners. Aim to fill the liners no more than 2/3 full or they will over flow when they bake. Top with more finely chopped walnuts.
  • Bake for 20 to 25 minute or until golden brown and a toothpick stuck in the middle comes out clean.
  • Cool completely before eating.
