Banana Nut Muffins

We had a friend over for tea and i was looking for a simple treat to serve. I was after something that was not too sweat but would be nice with the tea.

This simple recipe from Mark Bittmans How to Cook Everything Vegaterian.

Banana Nut Muffins

2 cups flour (1 cup wheat, 1 cup white)

1/2 tsp salt

1 Tbs baking powder

1/2 cup nuts (pecans or walnuts)

1/4 cup maple syrup

3 Tbs butter melted

1 egg

1/4 cup milk

3/4 cup mashed banana (about 2)

Mix dry ingredients. Pre-heat oven to 400 deg.

I keep a bunch of frozen bananas in the freezer. Then just peel and chop them up to add to muffins.

Mix the wet ingredients in a separate bowl.

Mix the wet into the dry and mix until just combined.

Divide the batter into 9 greased muffin tins. Bake for about 20 to 25 minutes until golden.
