Yield: 12 muffins
INGREDIENTS
Nonstick cooking spray
Muffin batter:
2 cups unbleached, all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon fine sea salt
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Preheat oven to 350°F with the rack in the middle position. Lightly coat a twelve-cup muffin pan with
the cooking spray; reserve.
2. Insert the chopping blade into the work bowl of the food processor. Add the flour, baking powder
and soda, salt, and cinnamon and process on Low to sift, about 30 seconds. Remove and reserve in a
separate bowl.
3. Put the bananas, sugars, buttermilk, oil, and egg into the work bowl, still fitted with the chopping
blade, and process on Low to combine. Add the reserved dry ingredients and nuts and process on
Mix until just combined, about 10 seconds.
4. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups.
5. Bake in the preheated oven for 18 to 20 minutes, or until a cake tester comes out clean. Let muffins
cool in pan for 5 minutes, then turn onto a wire rack to cool completely.
