Sharing is caring!

Here is a delicious and easy recipe for pumpkin banana muffins.  

These pumpkin banana muffins are healthy, moist, and a perfect snack for toddlers, kids, and adults, too!

You can make a large batch and freeze them so you have a quick pre-made snack for kids.  I try making large batches of these muffins but they never last long.  These get eaten up so fast!  

My whole family eats these muffins!  We eat them for snacks or a quick breakfast.  Does your family love muffins, too?

These pumpkin banana muffins have no refined sugar and are nutritious, making them a great snack for kids.

Pumpkin has vitamins A and C, antioxidants, and are full of fiber. 

I used canned pumpkin for this but you could probably use steamed pureed pumpkin (from frozen).

• 1/3 cup pure maple syrup
• 2 eggs
• 2 Bananas
• 1 cup pumpkin puree (I used canned)
• 1/4 cup milk (I used whole milk)
• 1 tsp. vanilla extract
• 2 tsp. pumpkin pie spice
• 1 tsp. baking soda
• 1/2 tsp. salt
• 1 3/4 cups white whole wheat flour (all-purpose or whole wheat will work)
• 1/2 cup chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions for Pumpkin Banana Muffins:

• Mash bananas well in a large bowl.
• Mix in all wet ingredients into the mashed banana (coconut oil, maple syrup, eggs, pumpkin, milk, vanilla)
• Add in the pumpkin spice, baking soda, and salt – stir.
• Mix the flour in (don’t overmix or muffins can be tough)
• Fold in chocolate chips.
• Pour into a well-greased muffin tin filling about 2/3 full.  I used silicone liners and didn’t grease and they came out easily.
• Bake at 350 degrees Farenhight for 22-24 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

These muffins are moist and sweet, but not overly sweet.

If you use a can of pumpkin, there will be leftover. 

I like to add the leftover pumpkin puree to smoothies.  Here’s a healthy pumpkin smoothie recipe for kids and toddlers.
