    Pumpkin Banana Muffin Served on a plate.

    Muffins are my fav sweet treats to make for breakfast. This particular recipe is super easy to make as well.

    Just one bowl and a few basic ingredients are all you need to whip up a batch.

    A cross between Banana Muffins and Pumpkin Muffins, these Pumpkin Banana Bread Bread Muffins is a great way to sneak in pumpkin and banana in your family’s diet without them even knowing.

    This Pumpkin Banana Muffin Recipe is

    • Easy
    • One Bowl
    • Moist
    • Warm
    • Full of flavors
    • Made from scratch

    How to make a small batch of these Muffins?

    This recipe can be divided into half easily. Just divide all the ingredients into half and use 1 egg instead of 3 and you should be able to make a small batch of Pumpkin Banana Muffins.

    Variations

    You can use whole wheat flour in place of all-purpose flour in this recipe.

    To make Pumpkin Banana Oatmeal Muffins, replace ½ cup flour with Oatmeal.

    In fact, you can use any gluten-free flour in place of all-purpose flour and make these muffins gluten-free. You can even replace some flour with bran for a healthy twist.

    Add pecans, macadamia nuts, almonds, etc for crunch in the batter.

    Replace white sugar totally with brown sugar or coconut sugar.

    Add pumpkin pie spice in place of ground cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and ginger.

    Pumpkin spice is basically a mix of all these spices and so instead of adding 3-4 different spice, you can do with a single mix.

    Bake the batter in a bread pan instead of muffin cups and make pumpkin bread instead.

    Replace eggs with yogurt or flax seeds, for a no eggs recipe.

    Add chocolate chips in the batter if you love chocolate.

    You can add some grated carrot and dates puree to these muffins.

    Process

    This muffin recipe is one of my favorite recipes as it’s super easy to make and requires no skill.

    All you have to do is mix dry ingredients in one bowl, wet ingredients in another bowl. Mix them together and bake.

    Yes! It’s that easy. So wait for nothing. Bake this muffin recipe while fall is still here and we are still celebrating Pumpkin in all its glory.

    You can make Pumpkin Puree at home using my easy recipe and use homemade Pumpkin Pie Spice Mix in place of ground spices.

      Wonderful! This just became my favorite new go to pumpkin banana recipe. A quick question – if I use almond flour to replace the white or whole wheat flour do I need to make any other adjustments in the pumpkin /banana purée or oil or eggs? What is the texture like when you use almond flour?
