Delicious! I used 3/4 cup of mashed banana and peanut butter (I used Skippy's Reduced Fat) and added a little more flour. They were so good! Oh, and I think my addition of chocolate chips (instead of the sweet topping) helped.

I added more peanut butter and more banana as other reviewers had suggested and while I could taste each element and the muffins turned out very moist, they were just BLAH. I do not think that a muffin texture is strong enough to handle peanut butter AND banana (and I even added in a 1/2 cup oats for some texture!) This needs to be modified into a cookie and then maybe it would be worth eating. I gave it two stars because it was a great tender & moist muffin and the protein kept us going in the mornings. The flavor just wasn't there. I will not be making this recipe again.

I really liked the basic recipe. I did add a pinch of salt, plus 1/2 c. milk chocolate chips; and I also substituted crunchy peanut butter. Rather than the streusel topping, I just used sanding sugar. Next time I will try making them with whole wheat flour and topping them with chopped, salted peanuts.

I added a whole large mashed banana. I made no other changes. I think if I hadn't added the whole banana, the batter would have been too dry. My kids and husband ate these but didn't seem to be overly excited about them. This was a good way to use up peanut butter, oatmeal and banana....I just think it needs a little something.

Yummy! Despite the negative reviews, I followed the orignal recipe. They are delicious. I did use a very ripe banana, they were sweet. For those who want to change it up, you could add peanut butter chips or chopped peanuts, or both. You could also use granola cereal for the streusel topping. I am calorie/fat conscious so I prefer the orginal recipe.

Used almost a cup each of the peanut butter and really ripe bananas and some extra brown sugar. I used half all-purpose flour and half white whole wheat flour and added dark chocolate chips. Pretty good but the flavor is very subtle. Made 40 mini muffins. Would probably make these again for a change of pace or when I want some extra protein in my breakfast but I like my modified "banana banana bread" recipe better. (The flavor shows up the next day. My husband loved these. They peanut butter intensified over time until it overpowered my desire to eat them but he chowed them down by himself. I thought they peaked within a day or so.)

It was fairly good, not bad, but not great. There was something missing and I can't put my finger upon it. I followed the recipe and the batter was a bit soupy. So I added 1/4 cup more flour and 1/4 cup more oats. They were nice and fluffy and not hard, dense, or gooey. I'll keep this recipe and tweak it until I have perfected it for our family.

My 2 yr old and 4 yr old LOVE these muffins! I had to hid the container of them. otherwise they would have eaten all of them the first day! I did follow the advice of other reviewers and increased the amount of PB and bananas to about 1 cup.

The consistency was fine- moist and appealing. I also doubled bananas and peanut butter. But if you are using natural PB as I did, you will likely end up with banana flavored doggie bisquits. Go with the Jiff for this one folks!

These are okay tasting, but to me they are a little too bland. It just seems like they're missing a little something. I added about 1/4 tsp cinnamon, and a pinch each of nutmeg and salt, but that didn't make much of a difference. They seem to lack substance to me; I may try increasing the peanut butter next time.

These muffins were ok right out of the oven, but once they sat overnight they became mushy. My fiance who will eat just about anything wouldn't even tough these!

I took these to work and got great compliments. I added salt, extra peanut butter (crunchy) and bananas and reduced the milk slightly. My son sprinkled dark chocolate chips and some of them,,,that was a nice addition.

Moist, delicious, my fiance loved these! Changed I made: double peanut butter, added cinnamon, a little nutmeg, and chocolate chips. Took longer to cook, around 21-22 minutes (I think b/c of the p.b.).

I thought these muffins turned out very well, especially considering that I forgot to add the oats! I like the combo of peanut butter and bananas, and think the flavor came through just fine. I will keep this recipe in mind next time I have some over ripe bananas again.

These are great! I did add more peanut butter (personal preference ~ I love peanut butter!) and decreased the milk by the same amount. My picky 15 month old has eaten 4 of them since yesterday!

Glad I didn't read any reviews before making this for the first time or I probably would've kept searching. The only variation I made was a tsp of honey. I got 16 muffins instead of 12, had just enough topping to cover all & it smelled wonderful baking. Came out light & fluffy, subtle in the banana & peanut butter area but I wasn't expecting it to be overwhelming. Obviously, we all have different expectations in a muffin. Some want a stand homebaked treat while others are expecting those big, dense monster muffins you find in professional bakeries that cost $3 each. The only thing I would change is the name. We'll be calling these Elvis Muffins since they use PB & bananas!

You'd be surprised what 1/2 tsp of salt will do for this recipe. Mix it with the other dry ingredients and you're good to go. Major oversight when writing this recipe.
