Whether you want a warm breakfast on a Sunday morning or a little afternoon snack, these banana muffins are the perfect treat. Many people forget to use bananas during the week, so they start to turn brown. Luckily, this is a great opportunity for delicious muffins. I made this recipe by combining my grandma’s banana bread recipe and adding my own spin to it. The spices are what really make good banana muffins. I hope you give this recipe a try to see for yourself.
