Banana & Cinnamon Muffins

Ingredients:
2 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 tsp. salt
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
2 tsp. ground cinnamon, plus extra to sprinkle
3/4 cup sugar, plus extra to sprinkle
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
1 egg
1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
5 Tbl. unsalted butter, melted
1 1/2 cups mashed banana

Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 325°F.

2. Put the flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and cinnamon in a large bowl and beat with a handheld electric mixer until combined.

3. Put the buttermilk, egg, and vanilla extract in a small bowl and mix to combine. Slowly pour into the flour mixture and beat on slow speed until all the ingredients are incorporated.

4. Pour in the melted butter and beat until incorporated. Stir in the bananas with a wooden spoon until evenly dispersed.

5. Spoon the mixture into the muffin cups until two-thirds full and sprinkle a little extra sugar and cinnamon over the tops.

6. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 30 minutes, or until golden brown and a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the muffins cool slightly in the pan before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
