Techniques
If the bananas are green or just yellow, bake them on a baking sheet at 350 for about 10 minutes until blackened all over.
- 180 g all-purpose flour
- 150 g granulated sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ¾ tsp kosher salt
Whisk the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda and kosher salt in a big bowl; set aside.
- 113 g butter
Melt the butter in the microwave, with paper on top to contain splatters.
Melting the butter
Measure the banana (too much makes the muffins sink into pudding) and mash with a potato ricer or fork, as smooth or chunky as wanted.
- 2 whole eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
Add the melted butter, the room-temperature eggs, vanilla and cinnamon; mix the wet ingredients.
Fold the wet into the dry until just combined; overmixing develops gluten and makes dense, gummy muffins. Add any mix-ins (nuts, raisins, chocolate chips, coconut) halfway through.
Line a muffin tin with papers and fill them almost full with a scoop, or overfill and make fewer for taller muffins.
Filling the muffin tin
Reduce to 350 and bake another 15 minutes, until the centres spring back when touched lightly.
