How to Make Berry Burst Banana Muffins

  4. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 3/4 cup brown sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon baking soda.

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.
