Notes
Please Note: I highly recommend using a kitchen scale to weigh your dry ingredients. Metric measurements are found above under the “Metric” tab.
Flour: It is very important that you measure your flour properly! The right way to measure your flour is to weigh it using a kitchen scale, or use the scoop and level method.
Whole Wheat Banana Muffins: If you want to make whole wheat banana muffins, you can swap the all purpose flour at a 1:1 ratio with whole wheat flour.
Storage and Freezing Instructions:
Store in an airtight container at cool room temperature for up to 3 days. Freeze for up to 3 months by placing in a Ziploc bag. Thaw at room temp or heat one at a time in the microwave before serving.
