Today when I came home the whole house smelled divine of freshly baked goodness.
Sol (my youngest) baked banana muffins for school tomorrow. Lucky me got to taste one before she packed them into the cake tin.
Now I’m really lucky to have this young baker in the household and mostly it’s never hard to convince her to make something home baked.
Banana bread is a good thing … 1. You get good use of the overly ripe bananas and 2. If you skip the chocolate and switch the all purpose (white) flour for whole grain flour and brown sugar or honey instead of white sugar you have a yummy everyday treat.
Sols tasty bananuffins
Ingrediens
- 2 to 3 very ripe bananas, peeled
- 0,7 dl – 1/3 cup vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- Pinch of salt
- 1,2 dl – 1/2 cup sugar (3/4 cup – 1,8 dl if you would like it sweeter)
- 1 large egg, beaten
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3,5 dl – 1 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour
- 1,2 dl – 1/2 cup whalenuts or any nuts of your choice
- ( 0,5 dl – 1/4 cup finely chopped dark chocolate ) if preferable
METHOD
1 Preheat the oven to 175 degrees Celcius or 350°Farenheit. Prepare muffin pan or cups.
2  mash the bananas in a large bowl. Stir the oil into the bananas. Mix in the sugar, egg  and vanilla extract.
3. Whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Finely chop the nuts.
4 Add the flour mixture to the banana mixture, a third at a time, stirring until it is just incorporated. (Do not over-mix! Over-mixing will result in dense, tough muffins.)
Fold in the chopped nuts (and chocolate) .
5 Fill muffin cups, and bake: Lightly spoon the mixture into a prepared muffin tin. Bake at 175*C / 350°F for 20-25 minutes.
Check for doneness by pressing down on the top of the muffin. If it bounces back, it’s done. You can also test by inserting a skewer or other tester into the center of a muffin. If it comes out clean, it’s done.
Cool on a rack.
