Ingredients
3 ripe bananas, mashed
2 large eggs
1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
In a large bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth.
Add the eggs, unsweetened applesauce, vanilla extract, and plain Greek yogurt to the mashed bananas. Mix until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups.
Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for 5 minutes.
Transfer the muffins to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
