Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prepare two muffin tins by lining them with 20 paper liners. (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. (3 minutes)

03

Step

Add the brown sugar, melted butter, white sugar, and lightly beaten eggs to the mashed bananas. Stir until all ingredients are well combined, creating a smooth and consistent batter. (5 minutes)

04

Step

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, ground flax seeds, baking soda, and baking powder. This ensures even distribution of the leavening agents. (2 minutes)

05

Step

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are perfectly fine. Overmixing can lead to tough muffins. (5 minutes)

06

Step

Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full. (5 minutes)

07

Step

Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 20 minutes, or until the tops spring back when lightly pressed and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. (20 minutes)

08

Step

Allow the muffins to cool in the muffin tins for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. (10 minutes)

For extra flavor, consider adding a dash of cinnamon or nutmeg to the dry ingredients.
Chopped walnuts or pecans can also be added to the batter for added texture and nutty flavor.
To freeze the muffins, let them cool completely and then wrap them individually in plastic wrap or place them in a freezer-safe bag. They can be stored in the freezer for up to 2 months. Thaw at room temperature before serving.
Use very ripe bananas for the best flavor and moistness. The more ripe, the sweeter and more flavorful the muffins will be.
