Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.

Mash the bananas in a large bowl until smooth.

Mix in the sugar and melted butter until well combined.

Add the eggs and vanilla extract, stirring until fully incorporated.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the banana mixture, stirring until just combined.

Fold in the blueberries gently to avoid breaking them.

Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full.

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.

Remove from the oven and let cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
