Whether you’re a banana bread lover, or you just like everything muffin, these gluten, dairy, and refined sugar-free Banana Bread Muffins are sure to be a favorite!
Easy for the win.
These Banana Bread Muffins are quick and easy to whip up for breakfast or a snack. With no refined sugar, and only tiny bit of honey, they’re not super sweet, but sweet enough to satisfy my kiddos’ requirement for a ‘treat.’
While I haven’t had ‘normal’ muffins in a long time, the texture of these little beauties takes me back to muffins I used to make before going gluten-free. Perfect crumb, perfect taste!Â
Banana bread muffins.
In my personal, humble opinion, one can never have too many banana bread recipes. It’s one of my main comfort foods, and the very first thing I craved when I went gluten-free 4 years ago. If you take a few minutes to search for ‘banana bread‘ here on my site, you’ll see that different banana breads are sort-of an obsession of mine. 😉
Whether they come in the form of a loaf, a muffin, a doughnut, or even a smoothie, I’ll take banana bread any way it comes!

seems the amount of bananas is missing for the ingredients?
Thanks so much for catching that, Shannon! That’s what I get for writing when I’m tired. :p

Sorghum is my favorite gluten-free flour. I hope you enjoy the muffins! 🙂
Oh these look so good! I made a similar recipe last week that I’m going to be sharing soon as well. I love that you make your own coconut milk! That’s some talent!
Thanks, Tiffany! Coconut milk is super easy to make. 😉 No talent there, just a blender. haha. 🙂

Thanks, Cindy!
Made these today – loosely threw the ingredients together with chopped walnuts. These are perfect – healthy, not overly sweet, and are not filled with the same GF flours that I end up using over and over again. THANKS!
So glad you enjoyed them, Diane! Thanks so much for letting me know. 🙂
