One of our medical students gave me six bananas, two papayas and an avocado as a thank you for writing him a letter of recommendation. I gave a papaya away, Jonathan ate the other, I still have the avocado, and I made banana muffins with the bananas. mmmm…
I found a recipe on foodnetwork.com, and tweaked the recipe with a little of this and that from our pantry. They muffins turned out really yummy, so I’m going to put it down here, so I don’t forget the recipe:
1 1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 stick unsalted butter
2 eggs
Beat together until fluffy
5-6 bananas
1 T milk
2 t vanilla
Mush together, then add to butter mixture, mix together dry ingredients and add to wet.
2 t cinnamon
1 t nutmeg
1 t baking power
1 t baking soda
1/2 cup walnuts
Put into muffin tins and dust with sugar. Bake at 350 for 30 minutes, until toothpick comes out clean.
The finished product! I’ve already eaten three muffins already! The sugar makes the top crunchy and for banana muffins, they are really light and fluffy.
