Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour or whole wheat flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup mashed banana (about 3 medium or 2 large ripe bananas)
  • 1/2 cup packed light or dark brown sugar or coconut sugar
  • 1/4 cup honey or pure maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted or vegetable oil
  • 1 large egg, at room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 2/3 cup milk (dairy or nondairy, at room temperature)
  • 1 and 1/4 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
  • Optional: 1 tablespoon coarse sugar for sprinkling on top

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) and prepare a muffin pan by greasing it or lining with paper liners.
  2. Whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt in a large bowl until well combined.
  3. Mash the ripe bananas in another bowl and mix in the brown sugar, honey, melted coconut oil, egg, vanilla extract, and milk until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and fold gently until just combined; be careful not to overmix.
  5. Add the blueberries and fold gently to distribute them evenly through the batter.
  6. Fill muffin cups to the top, and sprinkle with coarse sugar if desired for extra sweetness and crunch.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) and continue baking for another 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for a few minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
