Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 F and prepare a 12-cup muffin tin with liners or by greasing.

  2. In a large bowl, mash 3-4 ripe bananas, then mix in 1/4 cup oil or vegan margarine and 1 cup granulated sugar until creamy.

  3. In a separate bowl, combine 2 cups flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon baking soda.

  4. Add the flour mixture to the banana mixture, stirring until just combined; do not overmix. If the batter is too dry, mix in any remaining mashed banana.

  5. Fold in 1 cup chopped walnuts if desired, or sprinkle them on top before baking.

  6. Spoon batter into muffin tins, filling each well 2/3 full. Sprinkle with sugar if desired.

  7. Bake for 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  8. Cool for a few minutes before serving, or cool completely for longer storage.
