Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 cups (480 milliliters) flour
- 1/2 cup (120 milliliters) mashed bananas
- 1/2 cup (120 milliliters) melted butter
- 1/2 cup (120 milliliters) white chocolate chips
Sweeteners:
- 1/2 cup (120 milliliters) sugar
- 1/4 cup (60 milliliters) brown sugar
Spices and Leavening:
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions
- Warm the oven to 350F and prepare a muffin tin with paper liners, ensuring even spacing.
- Combine dry ingredients in a spacious mixing bowl, whisking flour, sugars, baking powder, and ground cinnamon until thoroughly blended.
- Incorporate mashed ripe bananas into the dry mixture, creating a soft, textured base.
- Gently fold melted butter into the batter, maintaining a light and airy consistency.
- Sprinkle white chocolate chips throughout the mixture, distributing them evenly for maximum flavor in each bite.
- Carefully transfer batter into muffin cups, filling each approximately two-thirds full to allow proper rising during baking.
- Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, monitoring until a toothpick inserted into the center emerges clean and dry.
- Remove muffins from the oven and allow them to cool completely on a wire rack, enabling the texture to set and flavors to develop.
- Once cooled, serve and enjoy the rich, moist banana muffins with delightful white chocolate and cinnamon notes.
Notes
- Swap ripe, spotty bananas for extra natural sweetness and moisture in your muffins.
- Gently fold ingredients to prevent overmixing, which can create tough, dense muffins with a rubbery texture.
- Experiment with gluten-free flour blend for a celiac-friendly version that maintains the same delightful taste and texture.
- Consider sprinkling extra white chocolate chips or a light dusting of cinnamon on top before baking for a beautiful, bakery-style finish.
