Muffins - Microwave?

I baked some banana muffins earlier - I think I took them out of oven a bit too soon.
Now they've cooled, the bottoms are a bit too moist and stick to the paper cases.
Would sticking them in the microwave for a minute sort them out, or best to leave them as they are?
They're quite nice, not inedible - the bottoms just aren't right.

I can't be bothered to heat the oven up again (and not entirely certain if that would work either, now that they're cool.

If you had taken them out too soon, it would be the middle that wasn't cooked.

Did you cool them in the tray or on a rack or somewhere else? If it wasn't a rack, that could cause 'moist bottoms'?

Or maybe it's cooked banana sunk to the bottom?

thanks so much, yes I did cool them on a rack.
Logical, but it didn't occur to me that it would be the middle that didn't cook
I think its the banana that's sunk to the bottom - microwaving won't help🍌

You can probably tell, I don't bake very often😄

I'm sure they will be delicious, even with their moist bottoms!

@MassageForLife thank you - I took the rest of the batch into the office today, and they were fine - my mistake was trying to eat them before they'd cooled properly🙄

Ha, I am often guilty of that myself - it's just too tempting!!

Glad they were fine, and glad you didn't put them back in the oven!

This is not a mistake. This is mandatory 😋
