Notes
- Store: Store muffins at room temperature for 2-3 days or in refrigerator for 5-7 days. As they’re quite moist, I’ve found they store better when loosely covered rather than in an airtight container.
- Freeze: Freeze in layers with parchment paper between, in a large freezer bag. They will store in the freezer for up to three months.
- Over ripen bananas are a must! If your batter is too thick, means bananas were not ripe enough and muffins won’t turn out. Also you can’t use any other fruit.
- Eggs: You could try the recipe with all egg whites (1 egg = ¼ cup whites) but I much prefer the whole eggs.
- Almond flour: Some have had success with almond meal, but the texture may be grainy, and it can taste “healthier”.
- Sweetener: If you do have more of a sweet tooth, add a little of your favorite granulated sweetener. For keto/paleo banana muffins, use monk fruit or erythritol, etc.
- Baking time: Several readers have let me know that the banana muffins are ready at between 17-25 minutes for them, so the first time you bake these, I suggest checking from 17 minutes. The climate and your oven may affect the bake time.
