How to cook deliciously - Banana Nut Muffins

1. Stage

Preheat the oven and prepare the muffin pan: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a muffin pan with paper liners.

2. Stage

Combine the wet ingredients and sugar: Thoroughly mash the bananas in a large bowl. Beat in the sugar, then add the egg and beat until combined. Mix in the coffee and vanilla extract, then the melted butter.

3. Stage

Combine the dry ingredients: Whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.

4. Stage

Fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, then add nuts: Add the flour mixture to the banana mixture, a third at a time, stirring until it is just incorporated. (Do not over-mix! Over-mixing will result in dense, tough muffins.) Fold in the chopped walnuts or pecans.

5. Stage

Fill the muffin tin and bake: Lightly spoon the mixture into a prepared muffin tin. Bake at 350°F for 20 to 25 minutes. Check for doneness by pressing down on the top of the muffin. If it bounces back, it's done. You can also test by inserting a skewer or other tester into the center of a muffin. If it comes out clean, it's done. Cool on a rack.
