3. Next, soften the butter.
4. Into a mixer add the bananas, softened butter, sugar, room temp eggs, cranberry ( or blueberries) and vanilla. Stir with the whisk paddle until combined well and a little fluffy.
5. Switch to the Flat Beater mixer paddle and slowly add the wet ingredients into the mixer. Stir until just combined – do not over mix.
6. Using an Ice Cream Scoop, scoop out the batter into a greased or paper lined 12  muffin pan. (* I have included a link to my favorite muffin pan, these are awesome).
7. Bake for about 22 – 26 minutes or until muffins are golden brown and toothpick inserted into center comes out clean.
8. Finally, remove muffins from pan and let cool completely on rack.
