Total time: 45 min

Ingredients: 1-1/2 cup Mashed Ripe Banana (about 4 Medium Bananas); 1/2 cups Light Brown Sugar; 1/4 cups Honey; 1 Egg; 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract; 1/2 cups Almond Milk (or Any Milk You Prefer); 1 teaspoon Baking Powder; 1 teaspoon Baking Soda; 1/2 teaspoons Cinnamon; 1/2 teaspoons Salt; 2 cups White Whole Wheat Flour

1
Preheat oven to 425u00b0F. Line two 12-count muffin tins with paper liners or grease with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
2
In a large bowl, whisk mashed banana, brown sugar, honey, egg, and vanilla bean paste. Stir in almond milk, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt until combined.
3
Add flour, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring until just incorporated into mixture. Spoon batter into prepared tin, filling 3/4 full.
4
Bake for 5 minutes at 425u00b0F, then keeping oven door closed, lower temperature to 350u00b0F and bake for 13-15 minutes, or until muffins are lightly browned. This oven trick helps to ensure those large bakery-style muffins.
5
Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes in pan, then remove and cool completely on a wire rack. Serve with butter and/or a drizzle of honey, if desired. Enjoy!

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Swap the honey for maple syrup or agave for a slightly different but equally rich sweetness.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
Leave out the nuts to make it nut-free, or swap in seeds for a similar crunch.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
