Peanut Butter Truffle Banana Bread Muffins Recipe

I just love summer when the boys and I can bake together regularly. This is exactly what we did about a week ago, we played in the kitchen and came up with these yummy peanut butter truffle filled banana muffins.

These are simple, kid friendly and peanut buttery delicious. Please excuse my Instagram fetish, it is so convenient during the summer when time is of the essence with my little stinkers.

Hope you all enjoy! xoxo

Equipment

  • Oven

Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cups creamy peanut butter
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 large ripe bananas or 3 small bananas
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup light brown sugar packed
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 1/4 cups flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. and line a 12 cup muffin tin with cupcake liners.
  •  Place peanut butter and powdered sugar into a medium bowl, mixing until well combined. With a small cookie scoop, scoop evenly into the bottom of lined cupcake cups.
  • In a large bowl mash bananas until well mashed. Stir in sugars, egg and buttermilk until well combined. Slowly add flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon until just combined.
  • Evenly scoop batter over peanut butter truffle filled cups, about 3/4 full. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, until cooked through. Let cool completely and serve.

Notes

After these finished photos I re-worked the banana bread recipe a touch so it was even more moist, so the texture of your muffins may look just slightly different than these photos :)  Never fear, they are incredible!!* xoxo
You can also choose to place your dollops of peanut butter truffle mix on top of the banana bread batter rather than on the bottom. Either way is scrumptious, just a slightly different look 🙂

    LOVE this recipe- we always make our banana bread with chocolate chips in it. So we added them to the dough here too- super yummy! Thanks!!!

    Made these last night. Super good. I love them. Thank you so much for the yummy recipe. Thinking about adopting the banana bread recipe for when I make banana bread French toast. It has to be the super sweet kind for it to taste best. A huge hit in my house!

    I made these and they were awesome! I didn’t have enough regular PB so I also used a dark chocolate PB…yummy! I will making these again because my kids loved them!

    Two of my favorite things are Bananas and peanut butter…combined they become one of my favorite things. So these muffins sound absolutely delicious! 🙂

    Jenny–
    I have some adorable cupcake liners, but when I use them they tend to just blend right into the cupcake or muffins and you can’t see the cute design. How did you make yours stay so cute and vibrant? Did you put them on after baking?

      Hi Angela,
      I just bought those liners right at the grocery store. I’ve even seen them at Target. They have a foil liner which keeps the form and bright colors stay. Love it!

    Your kids are SO cute! I love the picture of them holding the muffin tray. The muffins also look scrumptious. I really enjoy reading your blog 🙂
