Mini Banana Muffins
These mini banana muffins are simple to make and they taste better and are healthier and cheaper than the packaged mini muffins my kids are always wanting. We love these with chocolate chips, but you can swap them for walnuts or just leave them out, if you prefer.

Notes
- The browner, more ripe your banana is, the sweeter your muffins will be.
- We like mini chocolate chips in these, but chopped walnuts are also a great option. You can leave them out entirely if you prefer.
- To freeze, place on a sheet pan in the freezer for 1 hour and then transfer to a freezer safe bag. Freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw in the fridge overnight or defrost in the microwave.
