This is a recipe I would hate to lose. It was given to me by a friend which I tweaked to make a low-calorie. This recipe makes the best banana nut muffins EVER. These tasty hearty muffins will fill you up as they are very dense but packed full of flavor. Has a nice crunchy top and great when heated in microwave. Tip: throughout the year I freeze my bananas when they turn brown. This way I always have ripe bananas ready to go when I want to make these. Muffins will freeze well too. Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups sugar |
1 1/2 cups splenda granular (sugar substitute) |
3/4 cup butter |
3 eggs |
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla |
2 cups bananas, ripe mashed |
1/2 cup light sour cream |
1 1/2 cups flour |
2 cups whole wheat flour |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1 teaspoon cinnamon |
1 1/2 cups walnuts, chopped |
Directions:
1. Preheat Oven to 325°F. 2. Spray muffin tins with cooking spray with flour, or line with paper cups. 3. In a large bowl, cream sugar, butter and vanilla until fluffy. Stir in eggs one at a time, beating with each addition. 4. Stir in bananas and sour cream. 5. In a second bowl, combine flour, soda, baking powder, cinnamon and walnuts; stir into banana mixture just until combined. 6. Pour 2/3 full into muffin pans. I use a ice cream scoop full, this way all the muffins are the same size. 7. Bake about 30 minutes check muffins with toothpick, when it comes out clean remove from oven - cool on wire rack. |
