1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 very ripe bananas, mashed (3/4 cup)
1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, melted
2/3 cup sugar
1 large egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
3/4 cup sweetened flaked coconut
Special Equipment
a muffin tin with 8 (1/2-cup) muffin cups; paper liners

Steps:

  • Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 375°F. Line muffin cups with liners.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas. The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your muffins will be.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the muffins tough.
  • Fill the muffin tins only about 2/3 full. This will allow the muffins to rise properly.
  • Bake the muffins at a high temperature for a short time. This will help them to rise quickly and develop a golden brown crust.
  • Let the muffins cool completely before frosting them. This will help the frosting to set properly.
