Creating Strawberry Banana Muffins is quite straightforward when you follow these easy steps:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or spray with cooking spray.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. Combine Sugars: In a separate bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, vegetable oil, mashed bananas, buttermilk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
4. Combine Wet and Dry: Carefully add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be sure not to overmix.
5. Fold in Strawberries: Gently fold in the chopped strawberries and nuts if you’re using any.
6. Fill Muffin Tin: Evenly distribute the muffin batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full.
7. Bake: Place in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
8. Cool: Once baked, allow the muffins to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. Enjoy: Once cooled, the muffins are ready to be enjoyed or stored for later.
