How to Make Banana S’mores Muffins

Step 1: Preheat & Prep

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with liners.

Step 2: Mix Wet Ingredients

In a bowl, whisk together brown sugar, butter, mashed banana, egg, vanilla, and milk. It should smell sweet and comforting already!

Step 3: Combine Dry Ingredients

In another bowl, mix flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.

Step 4: Bring It Together

Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture—don’t overmix, we want fluffy muffins!

Step 5: Add the Magic

Fold in chocolate chips and crushed graham crackers.

Step 6: Fill & Top

Spoon batter into muffin cups (about 3/4 full). Top each with mini marshmallows.

Step 7: Bake

Bake for 18–22 minutes until golden and set.

Step 8: Toast Finish (Optional but AMAZING)

For that true s’mores vibe, broil for 1–2 minutes to toast the marshmallows. Keep an eye on them—they go fast!
