Ingredients Needed
Bananas: Make sure to use ripe bananas for maximum natural sweetness! The riper the banana the sweeter your muffins will be! Eggs: Eggs help to make the muffins fluffy and give them some rise in the oven. If you are vegan or are allergic to eggs you can substitute flax eggs instead! Creamy Peanut Butter: Use creamy peanut butter for the best texture! If you don’t like peanut butter or have a peanut allergy, use a different butter like sunflower seed butter. Maple Syrup: Adds a natural sweetness without the need for refined sugar! You could also use honey. Vanilla Extract: Add vanilla extract for extra flavor. Baking Soda: Baking soda is needed to help give the mini muffins extra rise in the oven. Toppings: You can add your choice of toppings before baking. I added some chocolate chips to some, sprinkles to others, and raspberry jam to the rest! They were all delicious!

Tips for Success
Blend the batter until smooth! Use a blender and make sure that everything is fully incorporated with minimal chunks in the batter for even baking. I like to blend, scrap the sides of the blender then blend for another 30 seconds to make sure everything is incorporated. Don’t over bake! These mini flourless peanut butter muffins bake quickly, so check them around the 10 minute mark to avoid over baking. Grease the muffin tin thoroughly. Since these mini muffins are flourless, they can stick to the pan more easily. Make sure to grease the tin well to ensure easy removal!
Recipe Variations
These mini flourless peanut butter muffins are versatile and can be made with different flavors and toppings depending on your preferences. Here are some additional ideas for toppings:
Peanuts: If you love peanuts add some crushed peanuts on top before baking for double the peanut flavor! M&Ms: M&Ms or other chocolate candies like crushed chocolate eggs can be used for holidays or special occasions! Blueberries: A few blueberries or other small berries like raspberries can be placed on top before baking for a fruity burst of flavor.
