Serve drizzled with Canela Syrup.

Tips:
- Use ripe bananas for a sweeter flavor and a more tender texture.
- If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
- Be careful not to overmix the batter, as this can make the muffins tough.
- Fill the muffin cups only about 2/3 full, as the muffins will rise during baking.
- Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
