The Best Banana Muffins

7 Comments/ 56/ 1

Banana muffins are another great way to use those too ripe bananas that I always seem to have hanging around. What it is with bananas these days? I am VERY picky when it comes to bananas. They can not have any freckles on them at all. So because I am so picky I seem to always have bananas gone bad thing going on in my house. Good thing I have some great recipes to use them, right?

Today’s recipe is an easy limited ingredient one that you can whip up in no time. I can’t remember where I found it originally so I can’t really give proper credit but I did change it a bit from the original one so there is that.

Enjoy and let me know if you love it as much as I do.

    I just tossed 3 into the freezer because they went bad so quickly. I will try this recipe!

      Hope the recipe turns out for you –I am about ready to make another batch. Those bananas just don’t keep very long anymore.

    I’m picky about bananas too. We buy them green because we like them firm and not overripe. Which is why, when we were still ordering our groceries on Insta-cart, we would get text messages saying, “The bananas are green, do you still want them?” and we would reply, “YES!!”

      I totally agree. No brown spot is allowed to be on any banana I eat. I like them just as they are turning from green.

    We love banana muffins at our house and I have a number of recipes. This one looks great and easy too. I like to toss in some blueberries if I have some around.

      Blueberries would be an excellent addition to this recipe. Hmmm….I need to hunt the freezer to see if I have any to put in the next batch. I can not keep up with the bananas these days.
