Posted: Sat May 23, 09 8:52 am Post subject: Banana Muffins
Ingredients
75g butter
110g sugar
1 large egg (enough to make recipe squidgy)
225g plain flour (I use strong white and it seems to work)
2tsp baking powder
4 ripe bananas (I sometimes use 5)
Optional bits:
50g walnuts
nutmeg
cinnammon
zest of an orange or a lemon
Recipe
Mash the bananas in a bowl
Chuck in everything else except the egg and mix
Beat the egg and add it to the mixture
Makes 12 muffins or 2 half pound loaves
Cook muffins at 180 degrees C for 15 - 20 minutes, loaves for 50-ish minutes at the same temp.
Comments
I hate walnuts so I usually just chuck in some nutmeg or some cinnamon. And I usually forget to have lemons and oranges in so just chuck in some lemon juice.
A slug of chocolate powder makes them banana and chocolate muffins. And I am toying the idea of trying it with some lumps of chocolate as well.
