Moist Banana Nut Muffins are easy to make! A great use for ripe bananas for breakfast or brunch from Serena Bakes Simply From Scratch.

What could be a better start to any morning than Banana Nut Muffins? Not much in my book.  

These are deliciously moist with a lovely banana flavor. 

Add a little pat of butter with a cup of coffee or tea and I am in pure heaven. These are a great alternative to making traditional banana bread when you have an over abundance of overripe bananas.

The worst part of making these was my husbands little addiction to wanting to lick the batter. I had to keep shoeing him away like a pesky little fly. It drives me crazy when he wants to eat batter with raw eggs in it.

According to him the batter was divine! For me I will just take his word for it and stick to eating my muffins.

Here's how I make these easy Banana Nut Muffins:



Mixing bowl with bananas and brown sugar.

In a mixing bowl beat together:
  • 3/4 cup Butter, Room Temperature
  • 1 cup Brown Sugar
Until light and fluffy.

Add 3 whole Ripe Bananas and beat until fully incorporated and fluffy about 3 minutes.

A mixing bowl with Banana Nut Muffin batter with eggs and vanilla.

Add:
  • 2 whole Eggs
  • 2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract 
Continue to beat until fully incorporated.


Add:
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt

Mix until blended.

Mashed Bananas in a bowl.

Mash remaining 2 whole Ripe Bananas using a fork.

Banana Nut Muffin in a mixing bowl with mashed bananas, nuts and flour.

Stir in:
  • Mashed Bananas
  • 2 cups All-Purpose Flour or Whole Wheat Pastry
  • 1/2 cup Chopped Walnuts or Pecans or Favorite Nuts
Mix on medium low just until blended scraping the sides of the bowl as needed.


This is the point where Colt kept trying to sneak his fingers into the banana muffin batter.. Such a trouble maker.

Muffin tins lined with muffin cups and filled 2/3rds of the way full with Banana nut Muffin batter.

Line or grease 18 regular sized muffins cups and fill 2/3 of the way full with Banana Muffin Batter.

You can dress the tops or muffin batter with a few additional chopped nuts if desired.

Banana Nut Muffins baked fresh out of the oven! An easy breakfast favorite and great use for ripe bananas from Serena Bakes Simply From Scratch.

Bake in a 375 degree oven for 18 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the muffins comes out clean.

We love to spread a little soft butter over Banana Nut Muffins while they are warm, but the banana flavor intensifies as they cool, and are delicious made ahead of time.

  9. The funnest part of baking is licking the bowl! There's nothing wrong with eating a bit of raw batter even with raw eggs. People have been doing it for centuries :). Anyway, your banana muffins look great!
