Sabrina’s Honey Banana Muffins Recipe

Delicious Banana Muffins are a great way to use ripe bananas. So the next time you have a bunch of bananas about to go bad you can make this muffin recipe along with your favorite Banana Bread.

Recipe Card

About this Recipe

While these muffins have a light, sweet flavor, they’re also relatively healthy. The sweet honey and bananas make it so you don’t have to mix in any extra sugar. If you’re enjoying them for breakfast, try cutting a warm muffin in half with a butter knife and spread on some butter and a little extra honey for a sweet morning treat.

Recipe Tips & Tricks

• During the prep time make sure that you grease the muffin tin, use cooking spray, or use paper cup liners to make sure the Honey Banana Muffins don’t stick to the tin.
• When you combine the wet and dry ingredients in a mixing bowl, don’t overmix. The batter will still be a little lumpy, but this will make beautiful domed muffin tops.
• Use a cup measurer or spoon to get a large scoop of the batter. Then fill the prepared muffin tin so each individual muffin cup is about ¾ full.

How to Store

• Serve: You can keep Honey Banana Muffins at room temperature for up to 3 days. Let them cool then store them in a plastic bag or another airtight container.
• Store: Put the Banana Muffins in an airtight container, and they’ll keep well in the fridge for a week.
• Freeze: You can freeze these muffins for up to 6 months.

Variations

• Vegan Honey Banana Muffins: To make these muffins vegan take out the 2 regular eggs and substitute with flax eggs and substitute brown sugar for the honey. Alternatively, you could use ½ cup unsweetened applesauce to replace the eggs. A third option is mixing in extra banana. It takes 1 mashed banana to replace 1 egg.
• Oil: For some oil replacements, instead of vegetable or canola oil, try using melted almond butter, olive oil, or coconut oil. You could also replace the oil with buttermilk.
• Nuts: Instead of making this recipe with pecans, you could try adding walnuts, almonds, or pistachios. If you like the taste of the pistachio, my Pistachio Muffins are also delicious.
• Flour: You can make healthy Whole Wheat Banana Muffins by using whole wheat flour in place of the all-purpose flour in the recipe. Use the same amount of whole wheat flour that the recipe calls for.
