Banana Muffins with a Little Twist

Writer: Ingrid PaakspuuIngrid Paakspuu

Banana muffins are a good choice if you have a sweet tooth and want to cook something quickly, but at the same time don't want to go to the store to buy special ingredients. This recipe took me about 15 min to make the dough and 20 min to bake it.


Ingredients:


3 ripe bananas

2 large eggs

175g wheat flour

100g of sugar

2 teaspoons of baking powder

2 teaspoons of vanilla sugar

pinch of salt

100g of butter


The original recipe is from Nami-Nami (but it's in Estonian):


Melt the butter, let it cool a little. Peel the bananas and mash them in a bowl with a fork. Stir in the eggs. Mix flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, vanilla sugar in another bowl. Add to the banana-egg mixture the cooled melted butter. Mix the dough lightly, distribute in muffin tins lined with paper wrappers. Bake in a 200C oven for about 20 minutes until the muffins are completely cooked.

From that recipe you will get 12 muffins. I left out the walnuts but I replaced them with a twist.


And now about the twist:


My grandparents brought me from Portugal Carob Powder. You can make out of it a good hot chocolate drinks or add to different desserts. I added about 5 tabelspoons of Carob Powder to my dough.


Here are pictures of the final look and Carob Powder:
