These MINI and MOIST Banana Muffins with crumb topping are the most delicious banana muffins you'll ever taste! Since they're mini, they're great for a healthy breakfast on the go! This recipe has been made thousands of times - find out why these banana muffins are the BEST and MOST POPULAR!  

Bananas.  Do you love them? I do.   I’m in this routine where I eat 2-3 bananas every day.   I have to buy 2 bunches a week at the store to keep up with my banana love! 

Brown bananas though kind of freak me out.  Here are the best ways to store bananas if you want to prevent that! I can handle a little brown here or there, but when they go very brown and mushy, I can’t eat them with a spoon like some people do.    So what to do?   You can make a banana smoothie, that sounds good.  Or you can make banana soft serve ice cream, also really good.  Or you can make these Mini and Moist Banana Muffin recipe!

The Best Banana Muffin Recipe!

This banana muffin recipe has been made thousands of times – find out why these banana muffins are so popular!

What’s not to love? These mini muffins are extremely moist and soft inside.    They have a banana taste to them, but it’s not overwhelming, although it’s still there.  My husband who doesn’t like bananas at all kept saying “I don’t like bananas, but these are really good”.  See, they win non banana lovers over too!  

Whenever I bake them they’re gone by the next day, so I hope your family likes them as much as my family does!

How to Make Banana Muffins

Let’s get baking and get started with this banana muffin recipe!
Here’s your bowl of flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt.  Mix around.

For this recipe you only need half an egg, so I break it apart with my fingers.    For the other half, save it for scrambled eggs.

Now we want to start to build the crumble.  This crumble isn’t your typical crumble as it “melts” onto your muffin for a full impact of taste! Combine flour, cinnamon and brown sugar.

Bake for 10-13 minutes.  Mine took 11, keep an eye on them.  When their sides are brown (you can see on the edges of each muffin in the pan) they’re good to go.

And when they come out, holy moly.  The smell of banana and cinnamon will take over.  I can’t wait for you to taste them!

Let them cool for a few minutes, they will be easy to take out of the muffin pan when cool.

    Honestly I don’t think I’ve ever left a recipe review but I just made these and WOW they are amazing!!!! The only thing I added was a splash of vanilla extract to my wet ingredients and they turned out so delicious!!! I made them specifically for my 16 month old who is obsessed with Entenmann’s Little Bites banana muffins in the bags lol. I made these in my silicone mini muffin pan with a light spray of canola oil and they turned out so perfect I can’t wait until he wakes up and eats them for breakfast 🙂 will 100% be making again!

    This is a keeper! My kids absolutely devoured these! My daughter who hates bananas loves them! She can’t wait for the bananas to turn mushy so I can make them again! Great for an after school snack! Highly recommend this recipe! I’ve shared it with many friends and family.

    Solid recipe! I use a whole medium egg and it is perfect so front stress too much about halving your egg (no disrepresprct for the poster though 😊). Moist and so tasty. I use my mini Bundt pans and it is the perfect personal size cake. Thanks for the great recipe!

    I (and my family) love these muffins! Especially the past few months, it’s our favorite way to use up our extra bananas. I’ve been making that “full size” but just purchased a mini muffin tin. I think they’ll go just as fast/faster!

    I’m a “young 70 yr old”, grandma who made this mini muffin recipe and was thrilled with the outcome. So tasty. I did add nuts and the crumb topping. I’ve never made muffins before. Sure to be a hit with the grandkids

    This has been the best base recipe! Super moist! I did reduce the sugar to 4 tbs, and added 1/2 tsp cinnamon, 1/4 tsp nutmeg, and blueberries the second time, but that wasn’t necessary. It was great the original way too. I can’t say how these are on day two or longer as they never last that long in my house.
