Ingredients  

  • Cooking spray
  • 2 cups flour
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3 very ripe, darkly speckled, large bananas, mashed well (1½ cups)
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 2 large eggs beaten lightly
  • 6 Tablespoons butter, melted and cooled
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 3/4 cups granola of choice, divided

Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 350ºF.
  • Grease muffin pan with cooking spray and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda and salt.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the mashed bananas, sour cream, eggs, butter and vanilla.

  • Fold 1 cup of the granola into the batter.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared muffin pan. Sprinkle the remaining 3/4 cup granola on top of the muffins then spritz the granola lightly with cooking spray to prevent it from browning.
