Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a muffin tin with liners.
In a large bowl, mash the bananas until smooth yet chunky.
In another bowl, whisk together the flour, sugars, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and mix in melted butter and vanilla extract.
Combine wet ingredients with dry ingredients and gently fold in the mashed bananas until just mixed.
Fill muffin cups about two-thirds full and sprinkle optional mix-ins on top.
Bake for 18-20 minutes or until golden brown. A toothpick inserted should come out clean.
Cool in the pan for five minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
