I have been thinking of making these muffins for a while now. I had a few bananas which were ripe and no one was going to eat it. I was telling myself that tomorrow I am going to make the muffins out of this so they are just wasted.
I come from work on a Saturday and told my daughter that lets make some Banana Nut Muffins and she was super excited. Started my recipe search and turned to pick the bananas up and I don’t see them. I asked my husband what happened to those ripe bananas, he goes I threw them. I am like are you serious? There goes my plan. So waited another week to see if I will have any more ripe bananas. This recipe is taken from Food Network and is by Tyler Florence.
My husband and my daughter loved it. I am not a baker as is so kind of hesitant to bake anything because I have had quite a few cake disasters in the past.
Ingredients:
- 2 cups all purpose flour (maida)
- 1.5 tsp baking soda ( i used only 1 tsp)
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 4 riped bananas
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 3/4 cup melted butter and cooled
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla essence
- 1/2 cup pecans ( used walnuts)
Directions:
In a large bowl combine flour, baking soda and salt; set aside. Using a fork mash 2 bananas roughly so they have a little texture.
With an electric mixer using the whisk wire, whip the remaining two bananas along with the brown sugar for a good 3 minutes. Add the melted butter, vanilla essence, eggs and beat well, scraping down the sides using a spatula.
Now add the dry ingredients and mix until incorporated. Fold the mashed bananas and nuts into the batter. Using the spoon, put the batter halfway into the muffin pan.
Pre-heat the oven at 350 F. Tap the muffin pan so that the batter is distributed evenly without any air bubbles.
Bake it for about 18-20 minutes or until the toothpick comes out clean. Let it cool down for a few before taking them out of the pan.
Serve warm or hot with a cup of coffee for breakfast or eat it as a snack.
