Notes

  • Expert Tips
    • Choosing ripe bananas and blueberries will result in the freshest, sweetest muffins.
    • If using frozen berries, you can toss them right into the batter, no defrosting necessary!
    • Have your eggs and butter ready at room temperature. This will help to create a smoother batter (as opposed to cold ingredients).
    • No fancy equipment needed for this recipe! For tender muffins, a gentle hand stirring the batter is better. Don't overmix.
