Do your kids LOVE Little Bites? If so then they are going to LOVE these mini blueberry banana muffins. You are going to want to make extras to freeze so you always have a grab-and-go breakfast on hand.

Mini blueberry banana muffins

My kids love it when I buy them the little packets of muffins however they are not on the cheap side at all and it is so much cheaper to make a batch of mini muffins at home. These mini blueberry banana muffins are perfect for snacks at home and packing in the kids lunch boxes.

When making these I couldn’t decide between banana or blueberry so, I thought well why not do both! These Blueberry Banana Bread Bites did not last long in the house, and I am sure they won’t last long in your house either! These are great to put in the kiddos lunch boxes too!!

Since the first time I made these muffins the kids have begged me to make them many times. I sometimes think they skip eating bananas I buy just so they get to the brown stage so I can make them treats they love.

Tips for Making the best muffins

Room temperature ingredients. Having room temperature milk, butter and eggs when making muffins is going to give you perfectly fluffy muffins every time. When you use room temperature ingredients you get a smooth mixture that traps the air when mixing and then gives you fluffy muffins as they bake in the oven.

Gently stir the batter. When you are mixing the batter you don’t want to over stir.

How Long Do you Bake Mini Muffins?

The great thing about making mini muffins is they take much quicker to bake than larger muffins. You only need to bake mini muffins for 8-13 minutes depending on the type of mini muffin that you are making.

How to Store Homemade Muffins

Store cooled muffins in an air tight container. These muffins will keep for 3-4 days if stored properly.
