These muffins are absolutely delicious. I replaced the 1/2 cup maple syrup with unsweetened applesauce so I could feel good about giving it to my baby too. We LOVED it. Will be making these again and again.

Love this recipe! I feel good about having these as a breakfast option for my family. Loving the flour variation in your recipes. About to make the carrot muffins again too.
For anyone like me who never seems to make these until just after someone has eaten one of the ripe bananas,bi have had success adding one of those little applesauce cups 🤣

Very nice muffins. Tender and flavorful. Buttering the tin works as well as a spray, and avoids the use of a spray can. Used butter instead of coconut oil.

Great recipe! I made it exactly as listed with a few adjustments for baking at altitude (high protein flour – 2 cups and 7/8 t. baking soda, 2 tblsp. less syrup, quarter cup extra banana for moisture). Baked at 350. Muffins look beautiful and taste great (per my husband)!

In reply to Laura O.. Hi Laura, you can use either - refined coconut oil has a neutral flavor, unrefined will taste like coconut.

Thank you for the recipe! I went to make banana bread/muffins (or zucchini bread) and my Pilsbury Cookbook called for a cup of sugar. I closed the book and didn’t make any thing since the sugar was so high. I look forward to trying this out.
Are you using refined or unrefined coconut oil?

In reply to Kala. Hi, Kala, Unfortunately for no-sugar recipe seekers, the nutrition label on this recipe specifies 13 grams of sugar, which is mostly from the maple syrup. The sugar that's in maple syrup is chemically identical to granulated sugar in its effects on the human body. Granulated sugar weighs 4 grams per teaspoon. Thirteen grams of sugar equals 3 tablespoons plus 1/4 teaspoon, *per muffin*.
