How to Make Banana Muffins
Let’s make these ultra-soft muffins together.
Step 1: Preheat & Prep
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line your muffin tray with paper liners.
Step 2: Mash the Bananas
In a bowl, mash the bananas until smooth. The riper they are, the softer and sweeter your muffins will be.
Step 3: Add Wet Ingredients
Whisk in the eggs and honey until the mixture is smooth and slightly fluffy.
Step 4: Add Dry Ingredients
Add the flour and baking powder. Stir gently until just combined—don’t overmix, or the muffins will lose their softness.
Step 5: Bake
Scoop the batter into muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full. Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until golden and set in the center.
Step 6: Cool & Enjoy
Let them cool slightly before eating… but honestly, warm muffins are a whole experience
What to Serve with Banana Muffins
These muffins are amazing on their own, but even better with:
- A spread of peanut butter or butter
- A drizzle of honey
- A cup of coffee or tea
- Fresh fruit on the side
Tips for Making It Perfect
- Use very ripe bananas for best flavor and texture
- Do not overmix the batter—keep it light
- Check early so they stay soft and moist
- Let them rest for a few minutes before eating
Storage Instructions
- Room temperature: 2–3 days in airtight container
- Refrigerator: Up to 5 days
- Freezer: Up to 2 months (reheat before serving)
