Love banana bread? Then you have to make these super simple banana bread muffins that bake a whole lot faster and taste like the real thing!
Hi friends! Just stopping by really quick to share a new baked good recipe that I pretty much SHOCKED my taste buds with. Why? I don’t really bake. In fact, I don’t like to bake. So when something sweet hit my palate at 7am on Monday morning with a bite of these banana bread muffins, let’s just say they didn’t want me to stop eating! I always like to have a breakfast bread or muffin on hand when we have company [which we do right now for the holidays]. And because I had more than enough ripe bananas on hand I figured why not try making muffins with my traditional banana bread recipe in a muffin pan.
I’m feeling a little giddy, as most of my baking adventures lately have been a flop! So much so that the kids avoid the kitchen when they see the muffin pan hit the oven. Although with these banana bread muffins I heard Anthony ask for seconds with a mouthful— which is a BIG one for him. He has been on a non-muffin kick lately— hence why I haven’t shared a new muffin recipe in a while.
Whether or not you have company for the holidays or need a quick grab n’ go breakfast, then these banana bread muffins are for you! And your company. They can thank me later…
- 2 cups flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 stick butter [1/2 cup]
- ¾ cup brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 3 ripe bananas
- Preheat over to 350. Spray muffin tin pan with non-stick cooking spray. In a large bowl combine flour, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate bowl cream together the butter and sugar. Stir in eggs and mashed banana. Then add banana mixture to flour mixture and stir until combined.
- Fill muffin tins with batter [almost to the top]. Bake for 20 minutes.

Great recipe. Easy, delicious, a big hit at my house.
Thank you so much for the feedback Ann!
Excellent recipe! The muffins were a real hit here at home! Thank you! I added nuts to some of them and were also delicious!
Nuts would have been a great addition!!
Just made these this evening and added semi sweet chocolate chips. Wow, they are delicious!
Great idea on adding the chocolate chips!!!
Discovered we were out of baking soda; used 2tsp of baking powder and yielded deliriously light/airy muffins! Also reduced sugar to 1/4 cup and even 5yrold still enjoyed the muffin.
Wow! Trying to clean to sell our house, I whipped these up so no one would dirty my kitchen with their breakfast bowls and cups and plates and silverware (3 kids and a husband). This is simple, quick, and tasty! I wish I had three bananas, but I only had two fairly larger ones. Maybe a hint of cinnamon or nutmeg next time… Thank you!
These are great! Super easy and delicious! I used silicone cupcake cups and had to cook them for a bit longer but still came out great. Thank you!!
I’m so glad you liked them!
Hi. I plan to try this recipe tonight. Do you have nutrition facts, or about how many carbohydrates are in each muffin? Thanks 🙂
These are our favorite things to make. Easy and tasty and perfect!!!!! We add some brown sugar/cinnamon crumble mixture to the top.
