Banana Carrot Muffins are a healthier cross between banana bread and carrot cake in the best way possible. They're light, fluffy, and moist from the mix of extra ripe bananas and freshly shredded carrots. Meal prep them for a quick on-the-go breakfast or enjoy them for a relaxing weekend brunch. Either way, you'll fall in love with these muffins!

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter (melted and slightly cooled)
2 eggs (room temperature)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup carrots (finely shredded (~2 medium))
3/4 cup mashed bananas (~2 large)
1/2 cup pecan chips

Steps:

  • Pre-heat oven to 350°F. Line approximately 16 muffin tins.
  • In a large mixing bowl, stir together dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Set aside.
  • In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter (slightly cooled), eggs, and vanilla. Stir the wet ingredients into dry ingredients until just incorporated. The batter will seem extra thick at this point but don't worry, that's normal! Gently stir in the shredded carrot and mashed banana until fully combined, but don't overmix.
  • Scoop batter into muffin tins, approximately 2/3rds full. Top each muffin with approximately 1 1/2 teaspoons pecan chips, or as desired. Bake the muffins for 15-20 minutes until muffins bounce back when lightly touched and/or a toothpick comes out clean.
  • Let the muffins cool in the pan for 2-3 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Serve once the muffins are cool enough to handle, yet still warm. Let any leftovers cool completely and store in an airtight container at room temperature for 1-2 days, or in the fridge.

CARROT & BANANA CAKE



Carrot & Banana Cake image

This is a beautiful light flavoursome cake, originally from the Australian Women's Weekly "More Cake and Slices" cookbook. I use a mixture of walnuts and hazlenuts, and use grapeseed oil as the vegetable oil. Keeps well and is great in lunchboxes.

BANANA CARROT CAKE

From my mother-in-law. This carrot cake does not have a cream cheese frosting. I have not had this yet, but my hubby says it's wonderful. He says that he can't taste the bananas in the cake, but it's been years since he's had it, so that might be wrong. He says it's really good though.
