Moist and fluffy pumpkin banana muffins marry pumpkin and banana with warm autumn spices for the ultimate fall treat. They’re perfect for breakfast or a snack, especially when served warm with a pat of butter.
Preheat the oven to 375°F. Grease or line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners and set it aside.
Combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and pumpkin pie spice in a medium bowl.
Whisk the mashed banana, pumpkin puree, brown sugar, eggs, oil, and vanilla extract in a large bowl. In two parts, add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until everything is incorporated.
Spoon the muffin batter into the 12 prepared cups and refrigerate the muffins for 10-15 minutes.
If using, sprinkle the tops of each muffin with turbinado sugar. Bake the muffins for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the muffin comes out clean.
Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5-7 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
