If you want them to be softer and moister I'd replace the milk with plain yogurt. You may also want to turn the over down to 325 and let them bake for longer.
How much did you mix the ingredients together? With muffins it's usually best to just mix until all the flour is moist (by hand, with a wooden spoon or something), not try to get all the lumps out or use a mixer. That tends to develop the gluten too much and make them too tough.
this might have been it...did the recipe mostly from memory since I only had the list of ingredients. I'm sure I did the mashed bananas first and then threw the flour, eggs, milk, baking powder+baking soda, sugar and oil, more or less in that order. You think that might be it?
Yup, that might be it. What I usually do to make sure my muffins stay soft is mix together all the dry ingredients, then toss in all the wet ingredients at the same time and stir them together just enough to get the flour wet (don't worry about lumps), fold in any nuts or berries or anything with one or two stirs, and get them in the pre-heated oven right away.
Just came to say that! i.e.- Add butter! And, that recipe doesn't have much moisture anyway- applesauce, more or riper banana, fat, anything will help.
