These moist muffins were created in my kitchen while trying to bake with whole wheat flour, which has more fiber than all-purpose flour. Ingredients:
cooking spray |
1 1/2 cups sifted whole wheat flour |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
3 ripe bananas, mashed |
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted |
1 large egg |
3/4 cup white sugar |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/4 cup packed dark brown sugar |
2 tablespoons whole wheat flour |
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1 tablespoon unsalted butter |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spray 10 muffin cups with cooking spray. 2. Whisk 1 1/2 cups sifted whole wheat flour with baking soda, baking powder, salt, and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon in a large bowl. Mix together mashed bananas, 1/2 cup melted unsalted butter, egg, white sugar, and vanilla extract in a separate bowl. Gently fold banana mixture into dry ingredients just until moistened; do not overmix. Spoon batter into prepared muffin cups, filling them about 3/4 full. 3. Mix dark brown sugar with 2 tablespoons whole wheat flour and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon in a bowl, stirring until combined; mash 1 tablespoon unsalted butter into the mixture with a fork until streusel topping resembles crumbs. Sprinkle topping over muffins. 4. Bake muffins in the preheated oven until a toothpick comes out clean or with moist crumbs, about 20 minutes. |
