Mini Banana Muffins
Easy Mini Banana Muffins recipe. This easy breakfast idea uses mainly pantry staples, making them the perfect snack that the whole family will love.
Summer weather means that I have an abundance of overripe bananas. No mater how fast we eat the bananas, we will always have at least two brown bananas in our fruit bowl.
So of course I am going to make as many recipes as I can with them. I've already made a classic banana bread and banana cake this week. Time to make a mini banana muffin recipe.
These Mini Banana Muffins taste like a traditional banana bread but in muffin form. The perfect quick snack for when you are wanting some moist banana muffins but don't want to eat a whole muffin.
