Ingredients

4 bananas overripe, peeled, divided
2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup unsalted butter melted and cooled
2 eggs
1 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 tablespoons sour cream or yogurt
1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease 15 cups in two regular muffin pans.
Mash 2 of the bananas with a fork in a small bowl, leaving some texture. Set aside.
In a large bowl, combine the flour, butter, eggs, sugar, baking soda, salt, vanilla extract, sour cream or yogurt, and the remaining 2 bananas. Beat the ingredients with an electric mixer for 3 minutes, or until well combined.
Fold in the chopped walnuts and the mashed bananas with a rubber spatula.
Spoon the batter into each cup using an ice cream scoop or a spoon. This recipe yields 15 muffins.
Bake the banana nut muffins for 18-20 minutes, or until the tops turn golden brown.

Notes

Sour cream or yogurt makes these banana nut muffins extra moist and stay moist over night. If you don't have sour cream or yogurt, you may skip it.

The cup measurement is American/US cup.
