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. |
