2 Ingredient Banana Muffins Recipe (2024)

These 2 Ingredient Banana Muffins are so easy to make and only require a few simple ingredients. Actually, only two ingredients. Your kids will love these for snacks, breakfast, or even dessert.

Do you have leftover bananas that are starting to get a little too ripe to eat? Every week I tell myself, “I am going to eat these bananas.”

Every week, I don’t eat the bananas. It’s starting to become an issue. But I am working on it. There is just such a small window of banana texture and ripeness that I like, so you have to act fast when it comes around.

However, I’m not made when the bananas go ripe, because I now have the perfect simple and delicious recipe, you are going to love me for.

If you are like me, and frequently get ripe bananas, then this is the perfect recipe for you. I threw it together in a matter of minutes and my kids were thrilled to have hot muffins for breakfast.

The best part is, they are only two ingredients. YES. TWO.

Note: We love yellow cake mix the best for thesemuffins, but a white cake mix would also work! You could also use a chocolate cake mix for a chocolatebananamuffin!

Muffin Tin

How to make 2 Ingredient banana muffins:

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.

Mash your bananas in a bowl. Add your box of cake mix and stir very well (do not follow the instructions on the box).

After about a minute or so, it will start to turn to dough.

Place muffin liners in a muffin tin, then spray the inside of them with non stick spray.

Bake 15 to 17 minutes or until it is cooked through.

Looking for some mix in ideas:

I am all about banana bread, but sometimes it is even more tasty to add a little something something to the batter. If you are like me and need just a little texture or flavor boost, an addition is perfect.

Here is what I recommend adding to your banana muffins:

walnuts
pecans
almonds
peanut butter
chocolate chips
raisins
craisins
coconut
pineapple tidbits (be sure to drain them. This is also a good combination with the coconut shreds.)
butterscotch chips
peanut butter chips

You could really add just about anything, and they will only get more tasty. I love this recipe because it is quick, simple, and oh so tasty.

What is the best way to store these 2 Ingredient Banana Muffins?

I usually store these muffins in an airtight container in the fridge. I personally think they taste better when they are cold. They are incredibly easy to persevere and will last nicely for about 6 days in the fridge.

Could I make these Banana Muffins without cupcake liners?

For this recipe, we used cupcake liners, because they are pretty cake textured. They aren’t as dense as most muffins, so we do recommend using cupcake liners.

With most my other muffins, I usually just give the tin a little spray with non stick cooking spray, however, for this recipe, we do recommend using cupcake liners, to ensure easy removal and no sticking.
