Bananas and fresh strawberries make a great combination in this summery muffin! They’re so moist and full of delicious chunks of fresh strawberries. I love how the sprinkling of coarse sugar gives these muffin tops a little sparkle and crunchiness, too! I just did a light sprinkling, but you can do a heavier sprinkle if you want a real sugary top.


This recipe makes 11 to 12 regular-size muffins. The next time you have some ripe bananas and fresh strawberries on hand, keep these in mind!

You can enjoy these muffins for breakfast, brunch, or an afternoon snack. Do you have a favorite muffin recipe for summertime?
