  • Total Time: 1 hour 15 minutes
  • Yield: 12 muffins 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 and 3/4 cups (330g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 Tablespoon (14g) baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 cup (227g) unsalted butter melted and slightly cooled
  • 1/2 cup (106g) light brown sugar packed
  • 1/2 cup (99g) granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup (170g) full-fat sour cream
  • 1 cup (227g) mashed RIPE banana
  • 1 pint (292g) fresh blueberries
  • 1/2 cup toasted walnuts finely chopped
  • 2 Tablespoons sparkling sugar optional

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners and set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, nutmeg, cinnamon, and salt; set aside.
  3. In another large bowl, whisk melted butter, both sugars, eggs, vanilla extract, sour cream, and mashed bananas until fully combined.
  4. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, mixing with a rubber spatula until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep muffins tender.
  5. Gently fold in the blueberries and walnuts until combined.
  6. Divide the batter among muffin tins, filling each one to the top.
  7. Press a few extra blueberries into the top of each muffin, and optionally, sprinkle with sparkling sugar.
  8. Bake for 24 to 26 minutes until tops are golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  9. Allow muffins to cool in the pan for at least 15 minutes before serving warm or transferring to a cooling rack.

Notes

Make sure the bananas are ripe for the best flavor and sweetness.
You can substitute walnuts with pecans or leave them out if desired.
Muffins can be stored in an airtight container for up to three days.
