I love banana bread but had a difficult time finding a recipe that wasn't kind of dry and bland. After experimenting I came up with my own moist and delicious muffin. My kid's want me to make these nearly every week! Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter |
3/4 cup packed brown sugar |
2 eggs |
3 -4 large ripe bananas (about 2 1/3 cups mashed) |
2 cups all-purpose flour |
1 (3 1/2 ounce) box instant vanilla pudding |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips |
1 cup chopped walnuts (optional) |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven 350 degrees. Grease or use paper liners in muffin tins. (Makes approximately 16-18 muffins)
2. In large mixing bowl, cream softend butter and sugar together with an electric mixer. Add eggs and bananas. Mix until well blended.
3. In a separate bowl, SIFT together flour, pudding mix, baking soda and salt. (It is important to use a sifter for this step).
4. Add sifted dry ingredients to banana mixture.
5. Using a large spoon, mix until just combined.
6. Fold in chocolate chips and walnuts.
7. Use a scoop to fill 16-18 muffin cups about 3/4 full.
8. Bake in 350 preheated oven for approximately 18-25 minutes or until inserted toothpick comes out clean. Check after 18 minutes.
9. Store covered in the refrigerator. Will keep about 5-7 days in refrigerator but can freeze for longer.
