Recipe Tips
- Use ripe bananas: The riper the banana, the sweeter and more flavorful your muffins will be. Look for lots of brown spots.
- Don’t overmix: Stir the batter until just combined to keep the muffins light and fluffy. Overmixing can make them dense.
- Fresh or frozen raspberries work: Either is fine! If using frozen, don’t thaw them first—just fold them in gently to avoid extra moisture.
- Make them your own: Add chopped nuts, chia seeds, or a sprinkle of oats on top for extra texture and nutrition.
- Store smart: Keep leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 2 months for a longer shelf life.
Muffin Variations
- Swap the fruit: Try blueberries, chopped strawberries, or diced apples instead of raspberries for a fun twist.
- Add chocolate chips: A handful of dark chocolate chips makes these muffins feel like a treat while still being wholesome.
- Make them dairy-free: These muffins are already dairy-free, but double-check your chocolate or add-ins if you make swaps.
- Boost the protein: Mix in a scoop of your favorite vanilla protein powder or some Greek yogurt if you don’t mind a dairy option.
- Turn them into mini muffins: Use a mini muffin tin and reduce the baking time to about 12–14 minutes for bite-sized snacks.
