Tips:

Use ripe bananas. The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your muffins will be.
Mash the bananas well. This will help to ensure that your muffins have a smooth texture.
Use a variety of flours. This will give your muffins a more complex flavor and texture.
Add in your favorite mix-ins. This is a great way to customize your muffins and make them your own.
