Step-by-Step Instructions for Banana Blueberry Muffins
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a cupcake tin with paper muffin liners.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, mash the ripe bananas and whisk in the sugar, melted butter, egg, milk, and vanilla extract until creamy.
  4. Pour the banana mixture into the bowl of dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined.
  5. Fold in the blueberries carefully to prevent breaking them apart.
  6. Spoon the batter into the lined muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  7. Bake for 18–20 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean or with moist crumbs.
  8. Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
