How to Make Banana Muffins With Sour Cream

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 12-cup jumbo muffin tin or 24-cup standard muffin tin.
  2. Whisk together the dry ingredients: 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¾ cup granulated sugar in a large bowl.
  3. In a separate bowl, cream together: ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened, and ¾ cup packed light brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 1 cup sour cream until well combined.
  4. Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Stir in 1 cup chocolate chips and ½ cup chopped walnuts (optional).
  6. Fill muffin cups about ¾ full using an ice cream scoop or spoon.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Jumbo muffins may take a few minutes longer.
  8. Let cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
