How to Make Banana Bread Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan or line a muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ¾ teaspoon baking soda, ¾ teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter or margarine and ¾ cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in 2 large eggs, one at a time, then mash in 3 ripe medium bananas until well combined.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Stir in ½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional) and ½ cup chocolate chips (optional).
  6. Pour batter into prepared loaf pan or muffin tins, filling each muffin cup about ¾ full.
  7. Bake for 50-60 minutes for a loaf or 18-22 minutes for muffins, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Muffins and bread will turn golden brown.
  8. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
