If you have two ripe bananas I have a super simple Banana Mini Muffins recipe for you! These slightly sweet gems make for a great breakfast or snack on the go.
Husband: We’re going to need more of those little muffins this week, can you make that happen? Me: Maybe. We need a couple ripe Bananas.
Husband: Can’t that be worked out?
I agree that these Banana Mini Muffins are amazing but ironically enough they are topped with an ingredient my hubs “will not eat”. Yep. My hubs put in a (somewhat urgent) request for something I didn’t think he would even eat since he has told me repeatedly since I met him that he does not like nor does he eat Cinnamon.
But, like I said I think these slightly sweet gems are amazing and so I am all for making Banana Mini Muffins. Typically I have few Bananas in the freezer for Banana Bread, Muffins and Pancakes. At the time of my hubs request our freezer was Banana free which meant a couple yellow Bananas would find their way into a brown paper bag.
