Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it with non-stick cooking spray.

- Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean or with just a few crumbs attached.
- Remove the muffins from the oven.
- Allow them to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Enjoy your muffins warm or at room temperature.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
Tips:
- Ensure your bananas are ripe for maximum sweetness and easier mashing.

- To make these muffins gluten-free, double-check that your baking soda is gluten-free.
- Line your muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well to prevent sticking.
- You can add chocolate chips, nuts, or dried fruit to the batter for extra flavor and texture.
- Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
