This is Giada Delaurentes' recipe for banana muffins, these are just without the frosting and with granola. My family really likes them ! Ingredients:
3 cups all-purpose flour (sometimes we use 1/2 whole wheat) |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
2 cups sugar (we use brown sugar) |
1 cup vegetable oil (we usually use extra virgin olive oil) |
3 large eggs |
1 tablespoon vanilla extract |
4 bananas (ripe to over-ripe is better for mashing) |
granola cereal |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
2. Mix first 7 ingredients in a bowl.
3. In another large bowl, mix the rest of the ingredients, besides the bananas.
4. Mash the bananas (its sometimes easier to mash them in their skins a bit first) then add them to the bowl with the wet ingredients and mix them together.
5. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in 3 installments, make sure not to over-mix.
6. Either grease muffin tin with a paper towel dipped in olive oil or line the muffin tin with paper liners.
7. Fill the muffin cups about 3/4 the way up.
8. Crumble granola and add to the top of each muffin, adding as much or as little as you want.
9. Bake for about 20-25 minutes or untill a toothpick comes out clean.
10. Enjoy !
