Banana Berry Muffins
Servings 12 muffins
Ingredients
Muffins
- 3 large bananas ripe
- 1 and 1/2 cups flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon flake kosher sea salt
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/3 cup unsalted butter softened
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup mixed berries
Crumb Topping
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a 12-capacity muffin pan with muffin liners and grease the top of the pan.
-
In a large bowl, mash the bananas together until they are completely blended into a paste. Set aside.
-
In a medium-sized bowl, mix together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, nutmeg, and salt. Set aside.
-
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together the butter and sugar at medium speed until smooth. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add the bananas and mix until smooth, then reduce the speed to low and add the flour mixture in 2 increments, mixing until *just* combined. Stir in the berries.
-
To make the crumb topping, mix the sugar, flour and cinnamon together in a small bowl. Cut the butter into small pieces, roughly 1/2 inch in length and width, and put the pieces in the bowl as well. Then gently stir the mixture just enough to coat the butter pieces in the sugar mixture.
-
Evenly distribute the batter between the muffin liners, filling them about 2/3 full. Sprinkle about 1 tablespoon of crumb topping over each muffin. Bake for about 20 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of each muffin comes out relatively clean, the tops of the muffins are golden brown, and the crumb topping has turned into a crust.
Wow these look really lovely and the photos are so pretty also.
These pretty, fruity muffins did my cold winter heart good! Yes – always learn from my failures. (Whew – otherwise what's the point) Keeping this on notice – have some berries in the freezer and bananas are just around the corner.
Hi Eva-Your banana berry muffins look so moist, and yummy! Love the recipe, and the beautiful photos too!

The photo's are really good and make the muffins look sooo yummy!
Thank you!
I made these today they are the best muffins I ever had http://www.momzblotter.blogspot.com
Thank you all so much! Sorry it has taken me a bit of time to comment, I have been out of town the past week sightseeing in Washington, D.C., which was cold but very very fun š
I am honestly thinking of making these again now that I'm back. There's something about bananas in baked goods I just can't say no to….
Thank you for the recipe! A local coffee shop has the best 'Very Berry Muffin' and I can taste banana in it. I've been trying to find a similar recipe for a long time and this is the closest I've had. I added cranberry into mine and it turned out so good and moist. This recipe is a keeper!

I just made these and they're delicious! I'm an idiot and started mixing everything until I realized I was out of flour (oops). So I substituted it with a box of Jiffy mix and a handful of oatmeal and topped them with brown sugar. Amazing!
Very creative! That sounds like an awesome substitution, putting oats on top is a genius idea too, I definitely need to try that out when I make muffins again!
I made this for my housemates last week, and they absolutely loved them! I put strawberries and blueberries in with the bananas, very delicious.
Ohhh strawberries in it sound delicious!
Just made these this afternoon so we have a quick breakfast for the week. They are delicious! Thank you so much for posting. Definitely a keeper!
Glad you enjoy them!!
Made them and they were moist and tasted delicious. What a tasty combination bananas and blueberries. Can't wait to try your other recipes. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much Lisa!
About how many muffins does this recipe make? They sound amazing and am making them tomorrow!
Thanks Michelle! It makes about a dozen š Let me know how you like them!
I finally made these – incredible! I made them with bananas and huckleberries, yum! The huckleberries plumped up like blueberries; these were moist and cool inside with a perfect sugary-crunch top. Sublime!
Wonderful!! Thank you Denise š I am so happy you enjoyed them!
Made these today after typing in "banana berry muffins" on pinterest. Fab-u-lo-soh!! That crusty topping makes them divine. Thanks so much. Will be a family favourite for sure š
Awww thank you Amanda! I am so glad you loved the topping, it's so crunchy and wonderfully sweet š
Oh my goodness, I stumbled across these and felt felt compelled to make them! I am having friends from afar to stay this evening, and I definitely see myself rising early tomorrow morning to have a plater of these ready for breakfast! Yum!
