Equipment

  • Muffin tin
  • large mixing bowl
  • rubber spatula

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour 330g
  • 1 Tablespoon baking powder 14g
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 cup unsalted butter melted and slightly cooled (227g)
  • ½ cup light brown sugar packed (106g)
  • ½ cup granulated sugar (99g)
  • 3 large eggs room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup full-fat sour cream (170g)
  • 1 cup mashed ripe banana (227g)
  • 1 pint fresh blueberries (292g)
  • ½ cup toasted walnuts finely chopped
  • 2 Tablespoons sparkling sugar optional

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees (F). Line a 12 cup muffin tin with paper liners and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, nutmeg, cinnamon, and salt; set aside.
  • In a separate large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, both sugars, eggs, vanilla extract, sour cream, and mashed bananas, mixing until ingredients are fully incorporated.
  • Add the dry mixture of ingredients to the wet mixture of ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not over mix or your muffins will be dry!
  • Fold in the blueberries and walnuts, mixing just until combined.
  • Divide the batter evenly among prepared muffin tins, filling each tin all the way to the top.
  • Press a few extra blueberries into the top of each muffin and then sprinkle with sparkling sugar, if using.
  • Bake for 24 to 26 minutes, or until the tops are puffed up and richly golden brown, and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean, or with just a few moist crumbs attached.
  • Cool muffins at least 15 minutes in the pan before serving warm or transferring to a cooling rack.

Notes

If your oven runs hot, bake at 375, for 25 to 26 minutes, or until golden brown. Bake muffins on a rack, positioned in the middle of your oven. If you frequently have burnt muffin bottoms, consider placing your muffin tin on a baking sheet before baking to help prevent this.
