I must admit…I’m guilty over sometimes over-buying on the bananas when I head to the store because deep down, I know that I want to make this Banana Crumb Muffins. While my family is large, there’s no way that anyone can possibly eat the amount of banana‘s that I buy in a week. Thankfully, this recipe calls for overripe bananas, which I never seem to have a shortage of!

Growing up, I have fond memories of muffins and banana bread warm out of the oven. Combining those two flavors into one power-packed combo is perfect for those early morning taste buds.

I love being able to make this up the night before and pop them in the oven early in the morning. If coffee is the smell that wakes up adults, then Banana Crumb Muffins are the smell that will have children running out of their beds, straight to the kitchen table.

And even more than them being delicious, I love that they are easy to grab and go as well. Let’s face it…some mornings we are running a bit late to even try to get out the door so having a batch of these muffins cooked and ready is so super helpful!

Give this yummy recipe a try! Breakfast time at your house will never be more simple!
