Ingredients

  • 2 cups (250 g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 3 ripe bananas, mashed (about 1 ¼ cups)
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • ¾ cup (150 g) granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • ¼ cup (61 g) buttermilk, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (166 g) strawberries, diced
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour, for tossing the strawberries

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners and set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and kosher salt.
  • In a small bowl, mash the bananas with a fork until mostly smooth.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or using a hand mixer), cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  • Add the egg and mix until fully combined.
  • Add the mashed bananas, buttermilk, and vanilla extract. Mix on low speed until just combined.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
  • In a small bowl, toss the diced strawberries with the tablespoon of flour.
  • Remove the bowl from the mixer. Gently fold the floured strawberries into the batter using a rubber spatula.
  • Scoop the batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full.
  • Bake at 425°F for 5 minutes. Then, without opening the oven door, reduce the oven temperature to 350°F and continue baking for 13-16 more minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out with just a few moist crumbs but no wet batter.
  • Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
