Gluten-Free Banana Muffin Recipe
So, I wasn’t intending on sharing this gluten-free muffin recipe, but these are far too good not too. It was just one of those random things where I was craving banana bread, and if you know me I usually always give into my cravings, so I went ahead and made these. Seeing as I’ve never posted a gluten-free version I decided I better share. Just an fyi, I’m not going gluten-free, in case you non-gluten-free eaters were wondering. I’m on a temporary gluten-free diet for medical reasons (temporary because I can tell the diet isn’t helping me feel any better), hence why this is like my sixth gluten-free recipe within a few weeks. I’m only on the diet for about another week though, but it has been a real eye opener to everyone out there dealing with Celiac Disease. I really feel for you guys! To be gluten-free by choice is one thing, but to have to do it because of medical reasons is another and I’m sure it’s not easy. It is good though, that it’s becoming far easier to access gluten-free foods and recipes. These easy banana muffins do gluten-free eating proud. They are so soft and moist, and they are brimming with sweet banana flavor.

Whisk together the dry ingredients in one bowl, and the wet in another. Add the dry ingredients to the wet, along with the mashed bananas. Divide batter between 12 muffin cups. Bake for 17 to 20 minutes.
Can I Freeze Banana Muffins?
Yes, these moist banana muffins freeze very well. Simply seal them inside a freezer bag and thaw on the countertop when you’re ready to enjoy them.
Tips for Making Gluten-Free Banana Muffins
Next time I may try adding in mini chocolate chips or fresh blueberries, just to take them over the top. You could also add nuts if you’d like. I prefer making these gluten-free muffins with my homemade GF flour blend, but a few readers have reported success using Bob’s Red Mill 1:1 flour blend instead. Enjoy these gluten-free banana muffins as is, or top with peanut butter, butter, or honey.
