Mini Banana Walnut Muffins

Muffin is one of my family’s favourite snacks, simple and easy to make. My daughter just likes them baked with bananas. And I love walnuts very much. So, I planned to put both of them together to suit the taste of both of us. Yet, this plan was aborted! Why? She protested to eat any walnuts in her muffins. I simply put some walnuts in mine and hers just with bananas. Problem solved !

Makes 12 muffins

Ingredients:

• 3 or 4 ripe bananas (smashed)
• 1/3 cup melted butter
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1 egg, lightly whisked
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup walnuts (optional, toasted and chopped)
• pinch of salt

Method:

1. Preheat the oven to 180C. With a spatula or wooden spoon, mix butter into the mashed bananas in a large mixing bowl.
2. Add brown sugar, egg and vanilla, mix well. Sprinkle the baking soda and salt over the mixture and stir well.
3. Add the flour, mix well and fold in the chopped walnuts.
4. Pour mixture into a muffin tin. Bake for 25-30 minutes. Insert a toothpick into the center of a muffin, if it comes out clean, it’s done. Cool on a rack.
