Banana Zucchini Bread Muffins image

This recipe is from my mother-in-law and it's the only way to get my husband to eat bananas and my kids to eat zucchini. I make them into muffins because they get eaten faster than the bread. But it's great either way.

Tips:

  • Utilize ripe bananas: Overripe bananas add natural sweetness and moisture to the muffins, reducing the need for additional sugar.
  • Grate the zucchini finely: This ensures even distribution and prevents large chunks of zucchini from overpowering the muffins.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in tough muffins. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Fill the muffin cups properly: Fill each muffin cup about 2/3 full to allow for expansion during baking.
  • Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This indicates that the muffins are done baking.
