    Ingredients

    Banana Bread Muffins Ingredients.

    Banana – If you have some leftover overripe bananas, do not throw them, mash them, and use it to make these muffins. These muffins will turn out good only with over-ripe bananas.

    If your bananas are not enough and you still want to make these muffins, I have mentioned below how to quickly ripe them.

    Pecans – I love the crunch pecans add to the soft and moist Banana Muffins. If you cannot find pecans, you can always go for almonds or walnuts. Even it works absolutely fine!

    All-Purpose Flour – The base of this Banana Muffins is prepared with all-purpose flour. You can also go for whole wheat flour for a healthy alternative, but the texture and taste will differ a bit.

    The muffins prepared with whole wheat flour will not be as soft as the all-purpose flour one.

    Eggs – Eggs adds softness in these muffins, so do not miss this. I have mentioned below some of the egg substitutes that can be used in this recipe to make this eggless.

    Vanilla Extract – Adds a slight hint of vanilla, thats adds to both, its taste and aroma.

    Spices – Spices add a nice flavor and aroma to the muffins and thus I love adding these two – Ground Cinnamon and Ground Nutmeg.

    You can even use Pumpkin Pie Spice instead of cinnamon and nutmeg to use in these muffins.

    Sugar – I have used brown sugar, but you can use normal sugar too. You can also increase or decrease the quantity of sugar according to your taste.

    Others – Apart from the above ingredients, we will also need Baking Soda, Baking Powder, Salt, Butter, and Milk.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    How to make these muffins healthy?

    You can make these muffins healthier by replacing all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour.
    Sugar can be replaced with powdered jaggery.

    How to quickly ripe banana?

    Here is a perfect trick to quickly ripe banana. Just pop the banana with the peel on a baking sheet and bake at 350 degrees F for about 6-8 minutes, or until the banana skin is dark. they will be perfectly ripened and ready to use.

    How to make them in microwave?

    Pour the prepared Banana Muffin batter in a microwave-safe muffin tray and bake them at high for about 5 minutes. Take them out and let them cool down before serving.

    Variations

    Vegan – If you are looking for a vegan version, you can replace eggs with applesauce or flax seeds, butter with vegetable oil, and milk with any plant-based milk.

    Eggless – You can use yogurt, applesauce, or flaxseed eggs (Flaxseed powder mixed with water) instead of eggs in the Muffin batter. These ingredients work absolutely fine when it comes to the soft texture of the muffins.

    I will suggest you use unsweetened apple sauce, but if you are using sweet applesauce, reduce the amount of sugar in the recipe.

    Gluten-free – You can use any Gluten-Free Flour instead of all-purpose flour to make these muffins. All the other ingredients and the process will remain the same.

    Storage Suggestions

    These simple and yummy Banana Muffins will last for about 3-5 days at room temperature when stored in a glass container or a cake dome.

    If you still have some left, you can freeze them. Place them in the ziplock freezer bag and freeze for about 3 months. 

    Once you want to serve them, thaw them completely and serve them at room temperature. If you like it warm, microwave them for a few seconds. 

    Serving Suggestions

    The dish has abundant flavours in it and tastes well when eaten on its own.

    Despite that, banana bread muffins pair perfectly well with evening tea, and possibly some butter or cream cheese spread makes it even more irresistible. Serve with a hot cup of Beaten Coffee.

    It will taste good even with whipped cream, berries or some slices of fresh banana.
