Banana Blueberry Muffins are loaded with bananas and blueberries and a zip of lemon. We really enjoy these muffins, and I am sure that you will too.
Hello friends! So sorry that we have been away for a few days. I spent last Wednesday through Saturday at the Everything Food Conference in Salt Lake City, Utah.
It was amazing; we met so many fantastic vendors and awesome food bloggers with wonderful tips on how I can improve my blog. The world around us is changing so quickly and some days it seems like I am on one of those merry-go-rounds that are at the park, and that someone is pushing it faster and faster and I am just trying to hang on. The world of social media is so different for a person that is older like me.
I might be more seasoned in cooking, but when it comes to computers and all that they offer, it is just like learning a foreign language. Anyway with that said, it is time to take a break and eat some banana blueberry muffins.

I got a little side-tracked today and so I made two batches of these banana blueberry muffins because I thought I left the oil out of the first one. However when I put them side by side, I really couldn’t tell the difference. So I might have put the oil in the first one and just forgot. I must say it is rough getting older!
These muffins are loaded with bananas and blueberries and a just a zip of lemon. Your family will really enjoy them. I wish that some of you lived by me so that I could share them with you (since I have enough to share today since I ended up making two batches). But with that being said, I will put some in the freezer for when it seems like there isn’t anything to eat.
Can Banana Blueberry Muffins Be Frozen?
Freezing Banana Blueberry Muffins:
- Allow them to cool completely.
- Put them in an airtight freezer bag and put them in the freezer.
- They can be frozen for up to three months.
Thawing Banana Blueberry Muffins:
- Thaw them on the counter for 2-3 hours or overnight in the refrigerator.
- Bring the muffins to room temperature, or warm them up in the microwave.
One disadvantage to being a food blogger is that my children are SPOILED. I don’t think that they dirtied one dish while I was gone to the conference. Saturday when I came home, I loaded the cups in the dishwasher with the dishes that were there from Tuesday and started the dishwasher.
Now I don’t know about you, but we run the dishwasher every other day at our house and when I had all five kids at home we usually ran it every day. I think there was a lot of fast food going on while I was gone to the conference!! I keep telling them to save themselves and stop eating out. You know; mom knows best.
However it did make it nice Saturday to pull out leftovers, so I didn’t have to cook. As for me, all we did at the conference was eat. I had to come home before I gained 20 pounds. It was awesome. Go enjoy some banana blueberry muffins.

I love blueberry muffins but it’s a really treat when we make them with fresh blueberries rather then out of a box. Next time we have blueberries I’m going to have to try this recipe. Thanks for sharing!
They really are better with fresh blueberries. Thank you for checking this recipe out.
