What do i do when life gives me old bananas? I always make a banana bread!! But today, i’m showing you an even simpler recipe for banana bread, made into muffins for a faster cooking time. These are the easiest 30 minute banana muffins, ever! Enjoy!

Like I mentioned earlier: you will only need 30 minutes from start to finish to get perfect, little snack sized treats made for your whole family. Feel free to add any ingredients you want to, to make them our own fun creation. For my recipe, I’ve added chopped walnuts and semi-sweet chocolate chips (per the request of my daughter)!

Watch them carefully in the oven, as to prevent overcooking or burning them. Every oven is different so you should check them closely to ensure they come out moist!
