How to Make Sour Cream Banana Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 24-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease well.
  2. In a large bowl, mash 3 ripe bananas with 1/2 cup (113g) softened butter or margarine until smooth.
  3. Stir in 1 cup (240ml) sour cream until combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg.
  5. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Add 2 large eggs and 1/2 cup (60g) wheat germ, stirring until well incorporated.
  7. Fill muffin cups about 2/3 full.
  8. Bake for 20-24 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Start checking at 20 minutes.
  9. Let muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. Enjoy your delicious homemade Sour Cream Banana Nut Muffins!
