Muffins are one of the most popular snack foods in the world. They’re easy to make and they taste great, which makes them a hit with kids and adults alike. Muffins can be made in all kinds of flavors, but my personal favorite is the banana muffin. The natural sweetness of a ripe banana combined with brown sugar makes these muffins almost too good to believe!
These muffins taste great, but they’re also good for you.
Bananas are a great source of many vitamins and minerals. Bananas are an excellent source of vitamin C, with one banana providing more than half the daily value (DV) in just 100 calories. Bananas also provide potassium and fiber, two nutrients that help you feel full after eating but don’t add many calories or fat grams to your meal.
Vitamin B6 plays an important role in many bodily functions including brain function, nerve health, mood regulation and digestion; it’s also known for boosting energy levels when you’re feeling tired or stressed out! You can get about 1/4th DV from just one medium-sized banana!
Bananas are also rich in vitamin A which helps maintain vision health by aiding with night vision as well as absorbing light into your eyes so they can see clearly during the day time hours too!”

2. Peanut Butter and Jelly Muffins
- Peanut Butter and Jelly Muffins
This delicious muffin recipe is a great way to use up leftover jam, or you can even make your own homemade jam if you want. You can use any kind of nut butter instead of peanut butter (almond butter works well), but keep in mind that they’re more expensive than regular peanut butter so it might be worth buying some from the store! You can also swap raisins for nuts if you prefer them or have allergies in your family. These muffins are gluten free as well, so everyone will be able to enjoy these tasty treats!
3. Lemon Blueberry Muffins
Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs, at room temperature (I put them in a bowl of warm water for 10 minutes)
Directions: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease or line 12 muffin cups with paper liners. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt until well combined; set aside. In another bowl combine the yogurt with lemon juice then add blueberries and stir gently until evenly coated; set aside as well. Add beaten egg whites into dry ingredients mixture then gently fold in yogurt mixture just until combined–do not overmix! Scoop batter evenly into prepared muffin cups filling each full almost to top edge because they will rise during cooking process which creates nice dome shape tops when done correctly 🙂 Bake 20-25 minutes until golden brown around edges but still soft when tapped lightly on surface near center where there should still be some give when pressed lightly with finger tip…remove from oven immediately after taking out so they don’t get overcooked! Cool completely before storing any leftover ones for later use 🙂 Enjoy!!
4. Banana Walnut Mini Loaves
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit, and prepare a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
- In a large bowl, combine all of your dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, salt) together until well-mixed; set aside for now! Then in another bowl mix together all wet ingredients (eggs/yolks, oil/melted butter) until combined; add this mixture to your dry ingredient mixture lastly add bananas & walnuts! Mix well until everything is evenly distributed throughout dough mixture then pour into each muffin liner so it fills up about 3/4th’s full before baking in oven for 20 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean when inserted into center
5. Peanut Butter Banana Cupcakes with Chocolate Frosting
Bananas are a great addition to any muffin recipe. They add sweetness and moisture, making the finished product more delicious than ever before.
Bananas are also good for you! They’re full of potassium, which helps keep blood pressure low, so you can feel healthier after eating them. You can even use bananas in mini loaves or cupcakes if you want an extra-special treat!
You might want to try adding chocolate chips if your family likes chocolate–or maybe they’d prefer peanut butter instead? Either way will taste delicious!
