These banana muffins are topped with a delightful honey-spiced frosting, making them a perfect treat for any occasion.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners.
Using paper liners makes cleanup easier and ensures the muffins release cleanly.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Sifting the dry ingredients can help achieve a smoother batter.
In another bowl, mix the melted butter, mashed bananas, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Ensure the butter is not too hot to avoid cooking the egg.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined.
Avoid overmixing to keep the muffins tender.
Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups.
Filling each cup about three-quarters full ensures even baking.
Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Rotate the pan halfway through baking for even cooking.
Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Cooling on a wire rack prevents the bottoms from becoming soggy.
Using an electric mixer, beat the confectioners' sugar, softened butter, honey, and cinnamon until smooth.
Start mixing on low speed to avoid a sugar cloud.
Spread the frosting over the cooled muffins.
Use a piping bag for a more decorative finish.
Serve and enjoy your delicious banana muffins with honey-spiced frosting.
Garnish with a banana slice or a sprinkle of cinnamon for added flair.
