- Add 2 large eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Mash 2 ripe bananas and beat them into the butter-sugar-egg mixture until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with 1/2 cup milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.

- Fill muffin cups about 2/3 full.
- Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

- Serve warm and enjoy!
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.
