Petite maple pecan muffins! They may be mini but they are filled with flavors of fall :)! The sweetness of maple and crunchy pecans pair together perfectly.
Another addition to these muffins are bananas. Yes, you know me and my banana muffins, well here is another twist.
Pure maple syrup, warm pecans, all in one petite and delicious muffin. I am a sucker for some pure Vermont maple syrup. The sugar free syrup just does not do it for me! However, these muffins only use 1 tablespoon of maple syrup, so they are still low in sugar if that is something you are concerned about, only 4 grams! 🙂
It is important that you use very ripe bananas for this recipe!! The more ripe, the sweeter the bananas, the sweeter the muffins. If you are not a maple pecan fan, take a look at my other banana muffin recipes, if you love white chocolate these, or some good ol OG banana muffins here!
The perfect little post holiday treat if you found yourself eating too many cookies and needing a little change, or a low calorie petite treat.
