Peanut Butter Banana Muffins
Description
Peanut Butter Banana Muffins combine mashed ripe bananas and creamy peanut butter into a batter with yogurt, melted butter, eggs, and sugars. The dough receives structure from a mixture of all-purpose and white whole wheat flours, along with baking soda for leavening. Ground cinnamon and allspice add warm spice notes that complement the banana and peanut flavors.
After blending wet and dry ingredients, the batter is poured into muffin pans and topped with chopped dry roasted peanuts for texture contrast. Baking at 350°F for 20-25 minutes yields moist, tender muffins with a lightly spiced aroma. These muffins provide a balance of sweetness, nuttiness, and fruitiness, making them a reliable choice for a convenient and filling snack or breakfast addition.
