Banana Muffins

By now you know I’m not eating my bananas but mashing them up for something delicious. So many breakfast and snacks options. Let’s dig in.

Ingredients:

2 ripe bananas

I cup flour

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 cup sugar

2 tablespoon vegetable oil

2 tablespoon melted unsalted butter

2 tablespoon cocoa/drinking chocolate

1 large egg

2 tablespoon milk

1 teaspoon essence

Method:

Mash the bananas in a bowl

Add the egg, butter and vegetable oil one at a time while mixing well. Don’t over combine

Add sugar. Mix properly

Add flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cocoa one at a time without over combining and whisk the paste properly

At this point you can add 2 tablespoons buttermilk or its substitute

Add your preferred essence

The paste at this juncture should be thick

Grease your muffin tin with butter or vegetable oil

Scoop 3/4 of the mixture in each

Bake in 200 degrees celcius for 8 minutes, then reduce to 175 degrees for another 8 minutes.

Let them cool, serve and enjoy with your preferred drink.

PS: Do away with the cocoa/chocolate. It takes the banana flavor away.
