Moist Banana Nut Muffins recipe is easy to make. Made with ripe bananas, brown sugar, vanilla, and of course your favorite nuts make these a favorite start to the morning and great for brunch.
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:

In a mixing bowl beat together:
- 3/4 cup Butter, Room Temperature
- 1 cup Brown Sugar
Add 3 whole Ripe Bananas and beat until fully incorporated and fluffy about 3 minutes.

Add:
- 2 whole Eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract

Add:
- 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
Mix until blended.

Mash remaining 2 whole Ripe Bananas using a fork.

Stir in:
- Mashed Bananas
- 2 cups All-Purpose Flour or Whole Wheat Pastry
- 1/2 cup Chopped Walnuts or Pecans or Favorite Nuts

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

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.

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.

Delicious and moist muffin Serena, I usually convert not so good looking banana into banana bread, my hubby love it a lot.
Must try these, they look great. My Husband loves banana bread so will definitely go for these. Have to admit to a fondness for cake batter too!
I agree, there isn't anything much better than a good banana muffin!
These muffins look incredible! I have some bananas that are to that very ripened stage, planning on using them for banana bread. But, I might have to try these now :)
Happy Blogging!

Your pictures are beautiful-these muffins look delicious!
Serena...these would certainly start my day off on the right note! They look so moist, with that perfect pat of butter! I'll take a dozen, please!
LOL...your hubby and I are kindred spirits. Mine looks at me like I'm nuts when he sees me eating cookie dough (which I gave up for Lent!). But I'd be just as happy with one of your baked muffins...they look phenomenal!
Haha I'm a batter monster too :) Gorgeous photos, these muffins look absolutely delicious!
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!
