Soft, freezer-friendly muffins made for busy school mornings — one bowl, ripe bananas, and a smooth green lift from NeuroMatcha, our mushroom matcha drink mix formulated to support calm, focused energy. Bake a dozen on Sunday, stash them in the freezer, and grab one on the way out the door. NeuroMatcha's instant, clump-free mix stirs right into the batter.
Why this recipe works
Mashed banana keeps these muffins moist and naturally sweet, so you need less added sugar. NeuroMatcha turns them a gorgeous green and adds a smooth, low-bitterness matcha flavor plus its focus-supporting blend of matcha, functional mushrooms, and Alpha GPC — a little functional boost to start the day. A gentle hand at the mixing bowl keeps them tender.
Ingredients (makes 12 muffins)
- 3 ripe bananas, mashed (about 1 1/2 cups)
- 1/3 cup melted butter (or neutral oil)
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt (or milk)
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons NeuroMatcha mushroom matcha drink mix
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- Optional: 1/2 cup chocolate chips or chopped walnuts
Instructions
- Prep. Heat the oven to 350°F and line a 12-cup muffin tin.
- Wet ingredients. Mash the bananas, then whisk in the melted butter, brown sugar, eggs, vanilla, and yogurt.
- Dry ingredients. In another bowl, whisk the flour, NeuroMatcha, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
- Combine. Fold the dry into the wet just until combined — don't overmix. Fold in chocolate chips or walnuts if using.
- Fill. Divide the batter among the cups, about 3/4 full.
- Bake. Bake 18–22 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Cool. Rest in the tin a few minutes, then transfer to a rack.
Tips & variations
- Freeze a batch: They keep up to 2 months frozen — microwave one straight from the freezer for an instant breakfast.
- Riper is better: Spotty bananas make the sweetest, moistest muffins.
- Don't overmix: Stir just until the flour disappears for tender muffins.
- Add berries: A handful of blueberries is a back-to-school favorite.
