    banana muffins in a muffin pan

    there's nothing more disappointing than baking muffins and they come out of the oven flat. or they come out of the oven looking nice and fluffy, then sink in the middle.

    how do we fix that?

    i'll share with you below what makes these bakery style banana muffins so fluffy. but for now, i'll just start by telling you that these muffins are beyond delicious and easy to make.

    using simple and better-for-you ingredients, these muffins are a great way to start your day!

    ingredients used in these muffins

    • banana
    • gluten free flour
    • sugar
    • egg
    • coconut oil
    • cinnamon
    • vanilla extract
    • baking powder
    banana muffin ingredients

    frequently asked questions

    can i add mix-ins to the batter?

    yes, you can! i would stick to adding nuts, fresh fruit or nut butters to the mix. i would avoid any frozen fruit as that would change the consistency of the batter.

    what other flours can be used instead of gluten free flour?

    if you don't want to use gluten free flour, i suggest using regular all purpose flour. any other flour will impact the rise and texture of these muffins.
    however, they will bake and still taste delicious if you choose to test other flavors.

    how do i know when the muffins are fully baked?

    the muffins are fully baked when you stick a toothpick in the middle and it comes out clean.

    what is the best way to store these muffins?

    i store these muffins in an airtight container for the first day then put into the fridge if there are any left for up to 5 days. if you'd like to store them for longer, freeze for up to 1 month!

    how long will these muffins last?

    you can store these in the fridge for up to 5 days or freezer for 1 month in an airtight container for both options.

    what is the secret to making this batter so fluffy?

    two things! the amount of baking powder and not overmixing the batter. it works like a charm every time!

      I just noticed that in the beginning of this post you point out that egg is an ingredient that is used in the recipe, yet in the recipe description, egg is not in the list. I jumped straight to the recipe and so made this without any eggs. They didn't come out quite so fluffy ( I'm assuming it is because I left out the egg) as your picture but fortunately my family still liked the taste of it. However, I would really like to know how many eggs this recipe calls for. Thanks!

        Hi Lorelyn,

        I apologize for that! The recipe should be updated now and uses 1 egg! I hope you give them another chance and enjoy 🙂
