BANANA MUFFINS (STARBUCKS COPYCAT)

INGREDIENTS

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 egg
1 cup + 2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 cup vegetable or canola oil
2 tablespoons milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 large overripe bananas, mashed very well
1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.

Add flour, baking soda and salt to a small bowl. Whisk together and set aside.

Combine egg, sugar and oil in a large mixing bowl and use spoon to stir until well combined.

Add the dry ingredients to the wet and stir well. The mixture will be thick, dry and crumbly.

Next, add milk, vanilla extract, mashed bananas, and chopped walnuts and fold together just until incorporated.

Line a 12-count muffin pan with cupcake liners and spray lightly with nonstick cooking spray. Divide batter evenly into liners.

Bake 25-30 minutes, checking regularly until a toothpick comes out clean.
