Step-by-step instruction without your screen going to sleep

  • Nonstick cooking spray
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 4 banana, very ripe
  • 1 cup light brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted cooled
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup pecans, chopped

Utensils

  • Large Bowl
  • Small Bowl
  • Whisk
  • Large Spoon
  • Step 1

    Preheat oven to 375°F. Lightly spray Ninja™ Foodi™ NeverStick™ Premium 12 Cup Muffin Pan with cooking spray, then set aside.

  • Step 2

    In a large bowl, mix the flour, baking soda, and salt.

  • Step 3

    In a small bowl, add 2 bananas, and mash with a fork until soft but textured.

  • Step 4

    In a large bowl or bowl of a stand mixer, add the remaining 2 bananas and brown sugar.  Using an electric mixer fitted with whisk attachment, mix for 3 minutes, or until whipped and completely combined. Add the butter, eggs, and vanilla, and mix on medium speed, until ingredients are combined.

  • Step 5

    Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and mix gently until just combined. Add the pecans and mashed bananas, and using a rubber spatula, gently fold into the batter.

  • Step 6

    Using a spoon or ice cream scoop, transfer the batter to the muffin tray, filling halfway.

  • Step 7

    Place muffins in the oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean, or with few crumbs.

  • Step 8

    When cooking is complete, allow muffins to cool for 5 minutes. Carefully remove muffins from tray and serve warm or cooled to room temperature.
