Recipe adapted from: http://www.bestrecipes.com.au/recipe/Moist-Banana-Muffins-L13290.html
This recipe came to me from Anita during a procrasti-baking session. They came out so deliciously moist and packed full of bananas. They were amazing!
Makes: 12
Ingredients:
- 1.5 cups plain flour
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1.5 tsp salt
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 5 bananas, ripe mashed
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 1 tsp vanilla essence
- 1/4 cup honey
- (1/2 cup chopped walnuts – optional)
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 180˚C (~350F) and line a muffin pan with cups or squares of parchment paper.
- Mix the dry ingredients together in a bowl: flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, cinnamon.
- In a separate bowl, combine the wet ingredients: mashed bananas, olive oil, vanilla and honey.
- Mix the dry and the wet ingredients together (and add in walnuts – optional). Pour mixture into muffin pan.
- Bake for about 20-25mins (test by inserting toothpick into the centre and if it comes out clean, it’s ready. Note: if you stick it into the centre of a chunk of banana, it will still look wet, so poke a few cupcakes to be sure!)
