Peanut Butter Banana Muffins

healthy peanut butter banana muffins recipe baked in parchment paper liners

Healthy (but delish) peanut butter banana muffins are soon to be on repeat in your home... With minimal prep, the simple ingredients go from your blender, to a muffin tin, into your oven, and to your mouth in just about 30 minutes!

Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 30 minutes

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup natural creamy peanut butter*
  • 3 medium ripe bananas
  • 2 eggs
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 1 1/2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup chocolate chips, divided

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a muffin tin or line with muffin cups (see: DIY cupcake liners).
  2. Layer all of the ingredients (except the chocolate chips) in your blender jar, starting with the peanut butter, bananas, eggs, and honey, followed by the rolled oats, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Place the lid on top and blend until well combined.
  3. Add about 3/4 of the chocolate chips to the blender and pulse briefly to combine.
  4. Portion the batter into the prepared muffin tin (a large cookie scoop makes this super easy). Sprinkle the remaining chocolate chips over the top of each muffin.
  5. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

*I specifically chose a natural creamy peanut butter for this recipe because of its thinner consistency. Look for a variety that needs to be stirred before using, ideally made with just peanuts and salt.
