Blender Banana Muffins are an easy and quick way to enjoy homemade muffins. Made with simple ingredients and blended for convenience, they are moist, flavorful, and customizable with your favorite add-ins like chocolate chips, nuts, or berries.
Ingredients
- 2 ripe bananas
- 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil or melted butter
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups with butter or non-stick spray.
- In a blender, combine the ripe bananas, honey or maple syrup, vegetable oil (or melted butter), eggs, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth.
- Add the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon (if using) to the blender. Blend until just combined. Be careful not to over-blend; stop as soon as the flour is incorporated.
- Pour the batter evenly into the muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
- Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
Notes
- You can swap the honey or maple syrup for coconut sugar, agave, or any sweetener of choice. Adjust quantities as needed.
- For a healthier option, try using half whole wheat flour and half all-purpose flour.
- Make the muffins vegan by substituting the eggs with flax eggs and using a dairy-free yogurt.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to 1 week.
- For mini muffins, bake for 10-12 minutes and watch closely to avoid overbaking.
