Banana Nut Muffins
The
key to great muffins is to NOT over mix the batter. Also, for these muffins, and any
recipe with bananas, be sure they are ripe.
Prep Time: 35 minutes Serving Size: 12 muffins
- 3/4 cup all purpose flour
- 3/4 cup whole wheat flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
|
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup ripe bananas, mashed

Heat oven to 400°. Mix dry ingredients in a large mixing
bowl until well combined. Add nuts and stir. Set aside. In a
separate bowl, combine eggs, buttermilk, oil and vanilla;
beat with a wire whisk until well blended. Add mashed
bananas and mix well. Make a well in the center of the large
bowl of dry ingredients. Pour egg mixture in and stir
together with a rubber spatula until blended. DO NOT OVER
MIX! Pour batter into muffin tins (either paper lined or
lightly greased) to 3/4 full. Bake 15 to 25 minutes or until
springy to the touch. Stick a toothpick in the center of a
muffin to test for doneness. If it comes out clean, muffins
are done. |
