Main Ingredients
  • 2 pieces ripe bananas Choose ripe bananas with brown spots for the best flavor.
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt Can be substituted with a dairy-free alternative.
  • 1/3 cup honey or maple syrup Natural sweeteners for added sweetness.
  • 2 pieces eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour Can be substituted with gluten-free flour.
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Optional: nuts or chocolate chips For added flavor.

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork until smooth.
  3. Add the Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), eggs, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Stir until combined.
  4. In another bowl, mix the whole wheat flour, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, stirring just until combined. Do not overmix.
  6. If desired, add nuts or chocolate chips into the batter.
  7. Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly. Pour the batter into the muffin cups, filling them about 2/3 full.

  9. Let them cool for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

These muffins are versatile; you can add spices like cinnamon or nutmeg, or shredded coconut. Store them in an airtight container for a few days, or freeze for later.
