How to Make Banana Pumpkin Spice Muffins
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it with cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, thoroughly mash the bananas. Add the sugar and oil; stir until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, salt, baking powder, and baking soda.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Stir in the pumpkin butter until evenly distributed. The batter will be thick.
- Fill each muffin cup about 2/3 full. Sprinkle with oats and cinnamon, if desired.
- Bake for 15-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the muffins are golden brown.
- Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
