Here’s what you’ll need:
Ingredients:
| Quantity | Ingredient |
|---|---|
| 2 1/2 cups | all-purpose flour |
| 3/4 cup | sugar |
| 1 tsp | baking powder |
| 3/4 tsp | salt |
| 6 tbsp | butter |
| 1 cup | walnuts, chopped |
| 3 | ripe bananas |
| 1/3 cup | milk |
| 2 | eggs |
| 1/2 tsp | vanilla extract |
Instructions:
-
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius). 🌡️
-
Grease 18 muffin cups. You can use cooking spray or line them with paper liners if you prefer. 🧁
-
Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Use a pastry blender to cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. This step ensures a tender and crumbly texture for your muffins. 🥣
-
Stir in the chopped walnuts. These will add a delightful crunch and nutty flavor to your muffins. 🌰
-
In a blender or food processor, process the bananas, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract just until the bananas are chopped. This mixture will be your wet ingredients.
-
Add the banana mixture to the flour mixture, and stir until well blended. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay. This ensures your muffins are moist and fluffy. 🥄
-
Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full. You can sprinkle some additional chopped walnuts on top for an extra crunchy topping if you like. 🥄
-
Bake the muffins in the preheated oven until they appear golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This should take about 20 to 30 minutes, depending on your oven. 🕒
-
Remove the muffins from the oven immediately and let them cool in the pan for a few minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely or serve them warm. 🍽️
