Mother’s Day will be here before you know it. So I am sharing some recipes today and tomorrow to make mom for breakfast. Then next week, I will be sharing lemony treats you could make and give mom too. Today it’s Banana Coconut Muffins!
This breakfast recipe would be perfect for the kids to make because it all begins with a cake mix. You really can’t mess this one up. Serve these Banana Coconut Muffins up with some fresh fruit and yogurt on the side and you are set. They can also be made ahead of time. I also like to serve them with a little butter. I just love a little butter on my banana bread.

To make these muffins mix together a vanilla cake mix, coconut cream pudding mix, eggs, water, oil, mashed banana, and coconut extract. Then fold some coconut to the batter.
All that’s left is to divide batter between 24 prepared muffin cups and bake. This makes 24 muffins. Alternatively, you can make this in a bundt pan instead. Either way you will love this tropical combination of flavors.
