To adapt banana bread recipe to a muffin recipe : Put the batter in your muffin tin, filling each cup about halfway to two thirds. Reduce your cooking time because loaves are bigger than muffins. To make banana muffins rise more, you will need more leavening (rising agent ), which is baking soda, baking powder, or both. To increase the rising, increase the agent. but be aware of the following usual ratio: 1 -2 c buttermilk, sour cream or yogurt + 1/2 to 1 tsp baking soda + 2 tsp baking powder 1-2 c regular milk +1 tbs baking powder Normally, a light, nicely risen bread/muffin will have a tablespoon of baking powder to 2 cups of flour. If you have more flour or if it is whole wheat flour, you will need more rising agent. Do not just double the amounts or you will get unexpected results. If you have baking soda in the recipe, you should also have at least one of the following: molasses, buttermilk, sour cream or yogurt. These are acids which react with the alkaline of baking soda, which in turn makes the bread rise. If you add more baking soda than will react with the acid in the recipe, your bread will have a heavy texture and an unpleasant flavor. Happy Baking!
