Moist, flavorful, and perfect for Passover, these banana muffins are a delightful way to satisfy your sweet tooth while honoring holiday traditions. Made with ripe bananas, matzo meal, and potato starch, these muffins are leavening-free yet incredibly fluffy, staying true to Passover dietary rules. A touch of vanilla extract and optional add-ins like chopped walnuts or chocolate chips elevate their flavor, making them a versatile treat that works as breakfast, dessert, or a snack. With just 15 minutes of prep time and a simple ingredient list, these Passover banana muffins are an easy and crowd-pleasing addition to your holiday table.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth.
Add the eggs, sugar, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the bananas, and whisk until well combined.
In a separate bowl, combine the matzo meal, potato starch, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
If using walnuts or chocolate chips, gently fold them into the batter.
Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tins, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy these delicious Passover banana muffins!
