back to school muffins

 

We are a fruit loving family and eat lots of it

but even here we end up with the odd bruised and battered banana.

 

I have a fantastic banana cake recipe that makes 2 big loaves

but it takes six bananas.

 

I wanted a recipe (besides making smoothies) to use lonely bananas.

After a bit of fiddling I ended up with a recipe that uses only 1 cup

of banana but makes 12 delicious muffins and if there are any

not eaten they freeze beautifully .

 

Whisk together 2 cups S/R flour , 1/3 cup brown sugar , 1 egg ,

100g melted butter , 1/2 cup milk , 1 cup mashed up lonely banana

and 1/4 cup maple syrup (the syrup really gives a special taste)

 

Spoon into muffin cases and bake at 180c for about 25 mins.

 

I hope your family enjoys them as much as my family does xxx
