INGREDIENTS
●⅔ cup granulated sugar
●½ cup vegetable or canola oil
●2 large eggs
●⅔ cup mashed bananas (2 small bananas)
●1 teaspoon vanilla extract
●1 ⅔ cup all-purpose flour
●1 teaspoon baking soda
●½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
●½ teaspoon salt
CINNAMON AND SUGAR TOPPING
●3 tablespoons salted butter melted
●¼ cup granulated sugar
●1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
METHOD
Heat oven to 165°C. Spray muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray. Or you can also use parchment paper liners or muffin liners.
In a medium bowl, add the sugar, oil, and eggs and stir with wire whisk until combined well.
Add in the mashed bananas and vanilla extract. Whisk until combined.
Add in the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
Stir together just until combined, and no flour streaks remain in the batter.
Divide the muffin batter evenly. Each muffin cup will be almost to the top, a little over 3/4 full.
Bake for 16 to 21 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, and the muffins are high and rounded on top.
The tops of the muffins should not look wet (that means they're not fully cooked), and they should spring back when lightly pressed with your finger.
Remove the muffin pan from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes inside the pan and then remove the muffins to a cooling rack.
Let the muffins cool enough so that you can touch and hold them.
Combine the sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Put melted butter in a separate small bowl.
Dip muffin tops into melted butter and then into the cinnamon sugar mixture. Serve warm or let cool completely.
■Bananas: For the best banana flavor, use very ripe browned bananas.
■The baking time range is quite large. This is because all ovens cook so differently, and I don’t want anyone focusing on just one time.
I recommend setting the timer for the minimum (16 minutes) and then going from there
The best way to tell if the muffins are done is to use a toothpick and insert it into the top middle of the muffin. If it comes out wet, then it’s not done.
You want it to come out with moist crumbs. You can also gently touch your finger to the top of the muffin, and it should spring back.
The muffins should look done and not look like there is some wet/raw batter still on top
If you pull muffins out of the oven that are not cooked thoroughly, it will cause them to sink in the middle as they cool.
