    Cinnamon Banana Bread Muffins

    Banana Muffins taste like banana bread in muffin form with a sweet cinnamon & butter topping. All you need is one bowl. No mixer needed!

    Banana Muffins are soft, bake up perfectly round, and topped with cinnamon & sugar. One bowl is all you need to make the best banana bread muffins. No mixer needed!

    BANANA MUFFINS RECIPE

    There is something so comforting about a piece of warm banana bread or banana muffin. I always looked forward to a piece of warm banana bread slathered in butter as an after school treat. 

    Brown and ripe bananas never seem to be a problem at my house. Which is fine by me because it just means I can make these cinnamon banana bread muffins all the time. Life could be worse, right?!

    Cinnamon banana bread muffins taste like banana bread in muffin form! They are perfectly light and moist, loaded with banana flavor, and bake up beautifully each time. Topped in butter and a sweet cinnamon crumble. 

    BANANA MUFFINS WITH CINNAMON & SUGAR TOPPING

    Quick bread recipes and muffin recipes are hit & miss for me. They either bake up perfectly with a nice rounded top, they sink horribly in the middle, or they don't cook all the way through no matter how long they've been in the oven. 

    These cinnamon banana bread muffins were a nice surprise for me. They bake up perfectly round and tall each time! They're light but still dense with lots of banana flavor. And they have the surprise of a buttery cinnamon & sugar topping that is just incredible.

    HOW TO MAKE BANANA BREAD MUFFINS

    Granulated Sugar

    Canola or Vegetable Oil

    Eggs

    Mashed Bananas - For this recipe you will need about 2 bananas.

    Vanilla Extract

    All-Purpose Flour

    Baking Soda

    Salt

    Ground Cinnamon

    One bowl is all you need and no mixer! I use a wooden spoon or spatula to mix it all together. The best part is at the end when you dip the warm muffins in melted butter and then into a cinnamon & sugar mixture. 

    My kids just lick off the butter and sugar topping.... and it's just so good you may do the same 🙂

    MY TIPS FOR THIS BANANA MUFFIN RECIPE

    • For best banana flavor be sure and use a very ripe banana. Like so ripe that people question your sanity by using such an ugly looking banana!
    • The best way to tell if the muffins are done is to use a toothpick and insert it into the top middle of the muffin. If it comes out wet then it's not done. You want it to come out with moist crumbs. You can also gently touch your finger to the top of the muffin and it should spring back. The muffins should look done, not look like there is some wet batter still on top. 
    • If you can handle the hotness, I like to take the muffins out of the pan and let them cool completely on a cooling rack. That way they don't get too dry as they sit in the hot muffin pan. 
    • If you want smaller muffins then don't fill the muffin cups as high. Fill about halfway and you should get about 18 muffins out of the recipe.

    Calories 254 kcal

    Ingredients
      

    banana bread muffins

    • ⅔ cup granulated sugar
    • ½ cup vegetable or canola oil
    • 2 large eggs
    • ⅔ cup mashed banana (about 2 small bananas)
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • 1 ⅔ cup all-purpose flour
    • 1 teaspoon baking soda
    • ½ teaspoon salt
    • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

    cinnamon & sugar topping

    • 3 tablespoons butter, melted
    • ¼ cup granulated sugar
    • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

    Instructions
     

    • Heat oven to 375 degrees. Spray bottoms only of 12 regular-size muffin cups with cooking spray. Or you can also use liners.
    • In medium bowl combine the sugar, oil, eggs and stir with wire whisk. Add in bananas and vanilla, whisk until combined. 
    • Add in flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon and stir together until just combined.
    • Divide batter evenly among muffin cups. Each muffin cup will be almost to the top. About ¾ full.
    • Bake 17 to 21 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean and muffins are high and rounded on top. The tops of the muffins should not look wet (that means they're not fully cooked).
    • Remove muffins from pan to a cooling rack. 
    • For the cinnamon & sugar topping : Combine the sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Put melted butter in a separate small bowl. Dip muffin tops into melted butter and then into cinnamon-sugar. Serve warm or let cool completely.

    Notes

    Feel free to also use a handheld blender or a stand mixer. I prefer to make these with just a wire whisk but a blender can be used just as well.
     
    Readers have commented and said that they don't even do the cinnamon & sugar topping and the muffins are still delicious. Some have even reduced the sugar in the cinnamon & sugar topping.
     
    Check the muffins to make sure that the center is still not wet looking. It needs to be cooked completely so that the muffins don't sink down in the middle. If you're worried, simply use a toothpick and make sure it comes out with moist/dry crumbs on it, NOT wet batter.

          I made these with the smaller (1¾) muffin pan and found that 17 - 21 mins was too long. They become hard and dry. Any suggestions on temp and/or cook time?

            The temperature is correct but if your pan is smaller, holds less batter, then just set the cook time for lower (like 12-14 minutes) and check from there. All ovens are so different, so the cook time could vary depending on your oven. Hope that helps.

        They really are so yummy! Yes I think you could use brown sugar and be ok still. The two sugars do different things to baked goods so I can't say for sure how the final product would be. But it's worth a try as I think it would be just fine 🙂

          Worked fine for me, with brown sugar! (I figured the bananas were sweet enough and so wanted a more subtle sweetness. Left off the topping.) Also substituted for wholemeal flour (1.25c + 1T soy/milk).
          Did this in a four-hole pie maker appliance (bake for 7 minutes) and got 11.5 muffins, so worked wonderfully I think 🙂 Thank you for this recipe!

          I used 1/3 white sugar and 1/3 brown sugar in the mix. I also did a half white and half brown topping. I threw in some walnut pieces as well. Turned out great and may even cut some more white sugar out next time. Yummy!

        You know a great recipe when it can be adapted and still make something DELICIOUS! I used coconut oil (from a recommendation below) and brown and white sugar along with chocolate chips. Otherwise, I followed it to a “T”. What I came out with were a batch of moist, light muffins. This recipe is a keeper. I rarely leave comments. However, I just had to compliment the author. THANK YOU for sharing this with the world.

      Hi. Loved the recipe! I was just wondering why my muffin dough was a little bit raw in some parts of the muffin, like on top and as well on the bottom. I cooked them for about 17 minutes and they were definitely cooked everywhere else. Just wondering what I did wrong. They are delicious though! will make again for sure.

        Some of my muffins turn out with that little tiny raw part at the top too. But if you let them cool completely they tend to come together. If you eat them warm right out of the oven, I noticed the muffins had a little tiny raw part that was still there. Or you could try cooking them for maybe one minute longer and see if that helps.

          I was wondering if these muffin freeze well?
          I am also planning on using applesauce in place of the oil. Plus I have no vanilla extract. So planning on using banana extract instead.
          Will they freeze well? I will eat them once or twice a month. I will be the only person eating them

        It sounds like they may have just needed one to two more minutes of cook time. Mine have been a bit raw a few times when I've made them, but it's usually because I pulled them out a little bit too early.

      i have a quick question: what can i use a substitute for the eggs that's NOT applesauce? my niece would love these but she has an egg allergy. i think she can have baked goods but i'd rather avoid it for her safety.

        I honestly have no idea. I don't have any egg allergies that I deal with so I would hate to suggest something when I have no clue. I know of another blogger that uses ground flax seed instead of egg. Maybe you could find ground flax seed on amazon?? Not sure. I googled it and this is what it said : "Egg Substitutes for Binding:
        “Flax egg” – Mix 1 Tablespoon ground flax seed with 3 Tablespoons hot water. Set aside for a few minutes until the mixture thickens." I hope that helps. Good luck.

        Use flax seeds. One table spoon milled (ground) flax seed and three tablespoons of water per egg. Stir it and let it sit for 5 minutes. Then add into the batter just like you would with an egg ?

        Sgraf. They sell egg substitutes in a powder form and all you have to add is water. You just need to adjust your cooking to 0-5 minutes more and you won’t know there is no eggs in there.

It happens. They're not really under baked. I think that is what makes them moist and delicious! I love them! Thanks for sharing!

            Maybe that would work? I really can't say because I have never tried using yogurt instead. Usually the substitute for oil is applesauce. So maybe try half applesauce and half oil and see how you like that.

      I have made these muffins several times. I married a man whose mom cooks everything from scratch. It was very hard at first to adjust to that. It's been 8 years, so I am over it now! However, he told me after I made these that they were better then his mom's! Now, I know that might not be the whole truth, but he ate all of them before I could even try one! haha. Thank you so sharing. I have also made them with sesame seed oil, and grape seed oil with out any problems!

        OMG! I hope I never lose this recipe.. I made mini ones for my 2 littles (13 mins to bake) and they are so scrumptious. I want to wake them up just so they can try them (but I won't cut u NEVER wake a sleeping baby, even though he's 12 months old). They are going to be in heaven! Thank you so much for this recipe! Printing it and its going in my baking arsenal!

      Made the muffin recipe, used mini muffin tins and mini chocolate chips and baked 13(ish) mins. Didn’t use the sugar top since I added chocolate and they turned out beautiful!

      Hi there,

      These are so great! My mom only eats bananas when they are green, and needless to say, she lets them get ripe....and doesn't eat them! So, I found your recipe and have been making them every couple of weeks! So yummy and easy. Thank you!

        That's a great question.... I am not sure? I think it would work just fine, but I've never tried it myself so I can't say for sure that it does. Most quick breads take 45 minutes and more to bake. I would start at 45 minutes and then adjust the cook time as needed from there. If you try it I really hope it works. You have me super curious now so maybe I'll give it a try!

          Great news..... the bread turned out wonderful! I lowered the temperature to 350 degrees and it took 40 minutes. I then just spooned some of the melted butter over the bread and then topped it with the cinnamon sugar.

      Thanks, I made them in the paper cups and they are delicious. I used coconut oil and they came out a bit too oily. I think I will decrease the oil a bit. I also plan to add nuts the next time as I like a crunch in each bite. Thank you for sharing a simple recipe and answering my question.

      Baked for 17 mins at 375° and they came out dry & burnt. The tops are edible, so we’ve been enjoying “muffin tops”. May be my oven, though it’s usually spot on. Great flavor though. Going to try again at 350° for 15 mins.

      Just made these yummy muffins with a couple of bananas I had on the counter that had “seen better days”! I was going to go to my tried and true recipe from an old cookbook called the “Silver Pallet” and decided to give yours a whirl.
      SUPER tasty!
      I especially loved the fact that it was ONE bowl and used a whisk. Didn’t have to break out the mixer or anything else. Whipped them up in no time...Baked them for 17 mins but need another minute and they were perfect!
      Thanks so much! Diana

      Wow! What a great recipe! My hubby and son loved them. I keep only brown sugar in my pantry, so I substituted that for the white sugar and they were fantastic! I also used Swans Down cake flour instead of all purpose because that’s all I had on hand and the results were delicious. I baked at 375° for exactly 17 minutes in a standard muffin pan and then dipped the tops in melted butter and then the brown sugar/cinnamon crumble mixture and they were all gone by bedtime. I wish I could post a picture of my end results, but please try for yourself.....they won’t disappoint!

        I have not tried whole wheat flour, but I do know that it can make baked goods come out very dense and drier. If you want whole wheat, maybe try the white whole wheat flour. The white whole wheat flour usually does better in breads and baked goods. Or use half all-purpose and half wheat.

        They should do well freezing. I have not frozen these muffins so I can't say for sure how the texture would be afterwards. But I am fairly certain they would freeze fine. As for the topping, I would freeze them with the topping on it because the topping is so good on these muffins.

      I've been baking Banana Bread for years, and sometimes, into muffin pans. This recipe is spot on! Excellent. I lightly toasted a 1/2 cup of pecans, let them cool, and added them to the batter, and they were perfect for my wife's Mother's Day breakfast... she loved them with her coffee, and opening up cards and gifts with me and our girls! The only thing I did differently was to simply sprinkle a touch of cinnamon and sugar on top after pouring the batter into the 12 cup tin prior to baking. Thank you, this recipe is a winner. Cheers!

I doubled the recipe n I used nevella for the sugar with no problems. So dbl batch made 6 lg muffins, 6 cupcake size n 24 mini bites! I put them all in at the same time but took out minis 1st. then cupcakes, then muffins....all done perfectly. Thanks.

      Really good recipe! They were not as sweet as I expected though. I used 6 small bananas and I was still missing the subtle sweet note from the bananas. Next time I might put a bit more sugar, but overall, they were SO GOOD! I will make them again, thanks for the recipe!

      Used tongs to get the hot muffins out of the making pan and brushed them with butter then dipped in cinnamon sugar. Also used paper baking cups so they'd be easier to handle and not all "touchy" in this time of Covid.

      I was attempting to add in the recipe to MyFitnessPal when I noticed that the calorie count seems to be off. With 2/3 cup of sugar, just that alone comes out to 400cals per 1 muffin of 12 (that was only the first ingredient I checked). The 254cals that you have listed seems pretty low...am I missing something?

        Hi Kim. I triple checked the calorie information and it is correct. The recipe makes 12 muffins which means that the 2/3 cup of sugar is divided by 12. Hopefully that makes sense. But the 254 is the correct number. Thanks for letting me know cause sometimes I do get the counts off.

      This is my first attempt at making muffins (and also writing a review) but bunch of ripe banana led me to search recipes where I can use them. I am glad that I did and found this recipe. The muffins are awesome. I shared with neighbour and they doubted if I really made it from SCRATCH :). One question though. Can we use this recipe to make blueberry muffins and if so how and what quantity?

        Good job tricking your neighbor 🙂 I loving hearing comments like this. I have not tried this recipe with blueberries. My concern is that with fruit type muffins, it tends to add a lot of liquid to the batter so you have to compensate for that somehow. I just don't know as I have never done that with this recipe.

They cooked perfectly in my silicone molds for 18minutes. I’ll be honest we ate them up to 5 days later. Permanent recipe in my collection, thanks.

      Thank you so much for posting this recipe. I had 2 very ripe bananas, saw this recipe and had to try it. Just finished dipping them while very warm,,,couldn't wait. Split one with my husband they are wonderful. Only change was butter instead of oil, half brown sugar, half white, little fresh grated nutmeg and added walnuts. For topping I made a little more and again half white and brown sugar, 1 Tbsp cinnamon and finely diced walnuts. I really packed it on. I baked them 19 min and then 1 more minute my oven is slightly slow. Wish I could attach picture they are so yummy looking and taste amazing. Texture is perfect. Used paper liners so little mess, can freeze some. Will make these to put in covid care packages. Thanks again!

      Hello! We just LOVE this recipe! I have been making it at least twice a month since I found it! It is so easy and I've even played around with some of the ingredients. I found replacing one egg with plain Greek yogurt was amazing! We add peanut butter and mini chocolate chips (or dark chocolate bits)! My lil guy loves to help me make them...he loves to crack the eggs and wish. If I wanted to make this into a bread/loaf what time/temp would I need to set?

      Thanks again! Truly a great and flexible recipe! Has kept a little sanity during the craziness happening in our world today! Stay safe and healthy!

      I am not a fan of traditional banana breads, but had some overripe bananas I wanted to use. I tried this recipe and it was delicious! Even my pickiest eater loved it. I made it into a cake instead of muffins (8 x 8 pan, 25 minutes), and it turned out great! I also used more banana (3 medium bananas), less oil (1/4 cup), and less melted butter (2 T) on top, and it still tasted decadent! This recipe is definitely a keeper. Thank you!

      These muffins are delicious! The only slight change that I made to the original recipe was to add a few chopped pecans and to add the cinnamon/sugar mixture to the top of the muffins before baking (eliminated butter). The banana and cinnamon taste was perfect. Thank you for the recipe. It will become a regular for me.

I made 4 with walnuts, 4 with chocolate chips and 4 with the cinnamon sugar topping. My favourite is the one with the cinnamon and sugar topping.Definitely saving this recipe and making it again, thanks for sharing 🙂

      They were very moist and I loved the topping although I don’t think the they were as flavorful as other recipes I have tried. I think because this was the only recipe I found that had 2 bananas instead of 3. ( I only had two so that’s why I chose this recipe) I think I’ll try it again with 3 bananas and some nuts,

      Looking for a recipe as had lots of eggs and ripe bananas!
      So made double the amount thinking I'll freeze some! Usually use scales but the cups I bought worked well this time!
      They are delicious! Will definitely make them again, andvtgey may get eaten before any get frozen!!

      Is there an alternate I can use instead of oil?

        I honestly have never tried using anything other than oil in this recipe. I *think* you can replace the oil with melted butter but again I have never done that so I really can't say for sure what would happen. So sorry I can't help more.

      Love these muffins! I have an old standby banana muffin recipe that was good but the topping on these puts them over the top! My kids love them for a quick breakfast or snack and I love them with my morning coffee.

      These muffins were the best I’ve ever baked! I really loved the way these muffins turned out. I did modify the measurements by using both brown and white sugars and whole wheat white and all purpose flours. I also added finely chopped pecans. Man did these muffins come out stellar! I had to keep myself from eating more than 1! This recipe is definitely a keeper. I’ll be making more tomorrow!

      Great recipe. I used whole wheat pastry flour instead of white flour and cut the sugar to 1/2 cup. No topping. Perfect sweetness and texture for my family.

      I’ve made these muffins about a dozen times. It’s my go to recipe. I don’t change a thing and my favorite part is the melted butter and cinnamon & sugar topping. Sure they taste good without you it BUT they taste great with it. My girls love the mini size

      I always have such issues when using banana's in recipes but THESE....TURNED OUT PERFECT! They are absolutely delicious with no changes or variations. This recipe is definitely a keeper! Love love love!

      P.S.Whoever said they turned out dry, you over mixed them. You only mix dry ingredients to wet JUST until combined and fold it all in, if possible.

      Winner Winner!! I've tried so many banana bread/muffin recipes through the years. Either they were sudo spice breads, or the bread was too dense and no banana flavor. These came out moist, light and cooked up perfectly. Did butter instead of the oil, did some muffins with chocolate chips, didn't need the cinnamon sugar. So good. Will definitely keep this one . Will try it with the cinnamon sugar next. Thank you

      I am always looking for healthier versions of muffins and made some modifications. Replace 50% of the cannoli oil with an equal amount of low fat Greek yogurt and replace 50% of white flour with white wheat flour. I reduced the sugar incorporated into the batter by 25% since the bananas are sweet. I make all muffins in mini pans and dropped the temp to 350 and kept the muffins in for 14 minutes and they were perfect. Rather than dipping in melted butter and cinnamon sugar I opted to sprinkle a bit of brown sugar and cinnamon on the top prior to baking.

      Excellent recipe. Made as written except for the topping, I added brown sugar, white and cinnamon together since I had some older hard brown sugar to use up. The muffins were so perfectly rounded. I have saved this to my "vault", lol. Smells amazing - waiting for the hubby to wander into the kitchen and snafu these bad boys! Ha ha. Thanks for sharing the recipe.

        So glad you like them! I would suggest lowering the temp 25-50 degrees and cooking for about double the time. Start doing the toothpick check about 3/4 of the way through just to be safe.
