  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 12 muffins 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 2 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil or melted coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Optional: 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine pumpkin puree, mashed bananas, eggs, honey, and vanilla. Mix until smooth.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Gradually add to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Fold in walnuts or chocolate chips if desired.
  4. Divide the batter evenly among muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
  5. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool slightly before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

  • Measure ingredients accurately for the best results.
  • Use ripe bananas for natural sweetness and easier mashing.
  • For lower sugar, reduce honey or maple syrup to 1/4 cup.
  • Replace all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour for a healthier version.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 days or in the fridge for up to a week.
