    These banana pumpkin muffins are a little bit healthier than traditional banana muffins and for sure healthier than processed store-bought muffins. They have 50% almond flour and 50% organic all-purpose flour. I like to use coconut sugar instead of regular white sugar. They're still full of flavor. It's pretty easy to make homemade snacks healthier. You can feel good about making them for your kids because you know exactly what's in them.

    My kids love muffins as a snack. I have so many different muffin recipes. Some are regular homemade muffins, and some are sourdough discard muffins. They are all great and pretty easy if you are just starting out making your own food. Muffins are pretty forgiving and there are endless flavor possibilities. You can find some of my other muffin recipes and snacks here.

    Equipment

    • Mixing Bowl
    • Masher, or a fork will do with a little more effort.
    • Spatula
    • Whisk
    • Muffin tray
    • Muffin liners (I love parchment paper liners, like you can get here!)
    • Measuring Spoons
    • Measuring Cups

    Ingredients

    • 1 Cup Almond Flour
    • 1 Cup all-purpose flour
    • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
    • 1 Stick Butter, salted
    • 3 Eggs
    • 4 Small Bananas or 3 Large Bananas (Brown, over-ripe)
    • 1 Cup Pumpkin Puree
    • ½ Cup Coconut Sugar
    • 1 tablespoon Honey
    ingredients for banana pumpkin muffins
    mashing in banana to muffin batter
    adding the dry ingredients into the muffin batter
    batter scooped into muffin tray
    muffins after baking in muffin tray

    Instructions

    1. Gather everything you need and preheat your oven to 350°F.
    2. In your mixing bowl, add in your butter and microwave to melt. It will only take about 30 seconds or less depending on your microwave.
    3. Stir until fully melted, adding in your coconut sugar and whisking until fully combined.
    4. Add in your eggs and whisk again.
    5. Peel your bananas and add them right into the bowl with the other ingredients and mash them down. Stir again.
    6. Add in your pumpkin, and honey. Mix again.
    7. On top of the wet ingredients, add in both flours and baking soda. Gently mix before stirring into the wet ingredients.
    8. Make sure you spray your muffin pan if you aren't using liners but I recommend using liners for less mess. I like to use a cookie dough scoop to transfer them to the muffin tray. Bake in the oven at 350°F for about 35 minutes. You will know they're done when a toothpick comes out mostly clean and the tops are starting to become golden and a little bit firm to the touch.

    Notes

    • I had a little bit of batter leftover that I made mini muffins with. I used a silicone mini muffin tray for them and they make a great little bite size snack for kids. (I baked them at 350°F for 25 minutes.)
    • The more brown the bananas are, the sweeter they will be.

    Storage

    • These store great in a ziploc or airtight container on the counter for up to about 3 days. They are great leftover.

      Thank you for your recipe! Have you ever made these cookies ahead and frozen them? How long do you think they’d store for?

        I haven't frozen these ones yet, but I have frozen plenty of my other muffins and cookies and they freeze very well in an airtight container for a couple months!
