3 Ingredient Banana Muffins
Easy banana muffins that are just 3 ingredients and don't require any butter, eggs, or oil!
Ingredients
- 1 ¼ cups (159 grams) self-rising flour
- 5 oz (142 grams) pureed overripe bananas, (see notes)
- 1/2 cup (4 oz) sparkling water
- 1/4 cup - 1/2 cup sugar, (optional, only if you want sweeter muffins)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 8 cavities in a 12-cup muffin pan with muffin liners. I recommend using parchment paper liners because otherwise the muffins will stick to the liners.
- Add flour to a large mixing bowl. If you are planning on adding sugar to the batter, add it now and whisk together. Add in banana and then water. Whisk until batter is smooth.
- Pour batter into muffin liners, filling them about 3/4 full. Use a spatula to scrape sides of bowl to release the batter stuck to the bowl so you have enough for all 8.
- Bake muffins for about 15-18 minutes. Tops of muffins should bounce back if you apply light pressure and toothpick inserted should come out clean.
Notes
- Make sure to puree the bananas to a liquid consistency. Then use a liquid measuring cup to measure out the 5 oz. The 5 oz measurement is volume, not weight. You will need approximately 2 large bananas for this recipe.
- I wanted my muffins to be only mildly sweet. If you want sweeter muffins, you can add 1/4 to 1/2 cup sugar.
- To make your own self-rising flour, add 2 cups all-purpose flour, 3 tsp baking powder and 1/2 tsp salt to a bowl. Whisk to combine. Measure out 1.25 cups for the recipe. The remaining flour can be stored for another recipe.
- Any sparkling beverage will work but it must be carbonated. See the post for more details.
- Because these muffins don't have butter, oil or eggs, they will be pale in color even after they are fully baked.

- I used White Lily Self Rising Flour.*
