As a snack or with a meal, these moist muffins go over great with the kids. The muffins fill them up and get them to eat nutritious bananas at the same time.—Lorna Greene, Harrington, Maine

Big Batch Baked GoodsWe enjoy homemade baked goods for breakfast, but I don’t have time to bake each morning before school. So I devote 1 day a month to making large batches of cinnamon rolls, doughnuts, cream cheese rolls and muffins. I place them in heavy-duty resealable plastic bags labeled with the date. (They freeze for about 2 months.) On busy mornings, it’s a snap to pop a few in the microwave to warm. The kids love the fresh-baked flavor. —Lori T., New London, Texas

Amazing! I added a 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon and a 1/4 teaspoon of nutmeg.

Wow, these are great. I only had two ripe bananas, so added about 1/2 c of mashed strawberries. Also added a good sprinkle of cinnamon and approx 1/2 c chopped walnuts (didn't measure). They disappeared fast. Next time will try with half whole wheat flour. My new go-to recipe.

The best banana muffins ever! I froze overripe bananas first (to save them from going bad) and barely mixed the batter. How can I send a picture?

I had some ripe bananas to use and found this easy recipe. These muffins were delicious! After reading the reviews, I added some chopped walnuts, cinnamon, and nutmeg. We loved them! Next time I'll try the chocolate chips.

I have tossed my old banana-nut bread recipe! These muffins are moist and tasty, and easy to make. The muffins are even better the next morning. You won't have to worry about leftovers. I am going to try making a whole batch (I made 1/2 batch since it's just the two of us) and freezing part of them to have handy.

Delicious! Added a bit of cinnamon and just a dash of nutmeg, good banana flavor and excellent muffin consistency.
