Recipe Expert Tips

  • Sour cream makes these banana muffins very moist and fluffy. You can substitute plain yogurt instead of sour cream.
  • Very ripe bananas are the best when making muffins.
  • Use a large scoop to fill the muffin tin so all the muffins come out the same size.
  • Do not over bake the muffins or they will be dry. Bake them for 20 minutes and then insert a tooth pick in the center. The tooth pick should come out clean.
