Notes

Use very ripe bananas for maximum moisture and sweetness. Ensure the batter is blended until smooth for the best texture. Check baking time closely to avoid dryness. Allow cooling time to ensure proper muffin structure. For longer storage, freeze once cooled and store in an airtight container.
