Description

Experience the delightful taste of banana blueberry muffins made with ripe bananas and fresh blueberries. This simple recipe yields soft, flavorful muffins perfect for breakfast or a snack, featuring a delicious crunch from toasted walnuts.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 and 3/4 cups (330g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon (14g) baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 cup (227g) unsalted butter melted and slightly cooled
  • 1/2 cup (106g) light brown sugar packed
  • 1/2 cup (99g) granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup (170g) full-fat sour cream
  • 1 cup (227g) mashed ripe banana
  • 1 pint (292g) fresh blueberries
  • 1/2 cup toasted walnuts finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons sparkling sugar optional

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F and prepare a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. Sift the flour, baking powder, nutmeg, cinnamon, and salt together in a large bowl, then set it aside.
  3. In a different bowl, whisk the melted butter, both sugars, eggs, vanilla extract, sour cream, and mashed bananas until well combined.
  4. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using a rubber spatula until just combined, avoiding overmixing to keep muffins moist.
  5. Gently fold in the blueberries and walnuts until evenly distributed.
  6. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup to the top.
  7. Add a few extra blueberries on top of each muffin and sprinkle with sparkling sugar if desired.
  8. Bake for 24 to 26 minutes until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs. Let cool in the pan for 15 minutes before serving.

Notes

For added sweetness, consider adding chocolate chips to the batter.
Swap walnuts for pecans or omit them for a nut-free version.
Store leftover muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
