How to Make 2 Point Banana Muffins
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with 18 paper liners.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter and 1 cup Splenda (or your preferred sugar substitute) using an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
- Add 2 large eggs and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Beat until thoroughly combined.
- In a separate large bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1 teaspoon baking soda.
- Gradually add half of the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.
- Add 1 cup milk (or buttermilk for extra tang) to the batter.
- Gradually add the remaining dry ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.
- Gently fold in 2 cups mashed ripe bananas using a spatula.
- Fill each muffin liner about ¾ full.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the muffins are lightly golden brown.
- Let the muffins cool in the tin for 2 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
