* 1 large egg
* 1 teaspoon baking powder
* 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
* 1/4 teaspoon salt
* 1/2 cup fresh or frozen blueberries

Step By Step Making
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line it with paper liners.

3. Add the sugar, oil (or melted butter), egg, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Mix everything together well.
4. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
6. Gently fold in the blueberries. If using frozen blueberries, do not thaw them first.
7. Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
8. Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
9. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
