Instructions

  • Heat oven to 375 degrees. Spray a muffin pan (12 muffin cups) with nonstick cooking spray or use parchment paper liners.
  • In a medium bowl, add the sugar, oil, and eggs and stir with a 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 with a rubber spatula just until combined and no flour streaks remain.
  • Divide the muffin batter evenly among the muffin tins, filling each muffin cup almost to the top.
  • Bake for 16 to 21 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Remove the muffin pan from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes inside the pan, then remove to a cooling rack.
  • Combine the sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Dip muffin tops into melted butter and then into the cinnamon sugar mixture. Serve warm or let cool completely.

Notes

For the best banana flavor, use very ripe browned bananas. These are best served warm or at room temperature.
