Chocolate and Banana Muffins
Yesterday evening I mentioned that I've baked Chocolate and Banana Muffins. I found the recipe in some magazine a while ago, can't remember which one. It might have been one of the free customer magazines supermarkets sometimes give out. Anyway, here's my take on the recipe for chocolate and banana muffins. You need (this should give you 12 muffins):
- 125g plain flour
- 2 tblsp baking powder
- 125g unrefined caster sugar
- 125g wholemeal flour (I used some strong stoneground wholemeal flour, partly because I had it in the kitchen, partly because I thought it might give it a nice taste)
- 125g dark chocolate, chopped (I used plain chocolate chips, too lazy to chop chocolate)
- 2 eggs
- 125ml vegetable oil
- 2 bananas (I'd say medium size)
And this is how you convert the ingredients into 12 very nice muffins:
- Preheat oven to 180°C (Gas 4, 350°F)
- Put all the solid/dry ingredients (i.e. first five from the list above) into a mixing bowl
- Chop the banana
- Beat the eggs in a bowl, add the oil
- Stir the eggs, oil and chopped banana into the dry ingredients. I used a very large spoon, that seemed to work quite will. Don't stir too long, just long enough to make sure the ingredients are well mixed and all flour has come into contact with liquid
- Spoon mixture into muffin cases, you might need two spoons as it can be quite sticky
- Bake for approx 40min. The recipe says 40min, but I think with my fan assisted oven 35min probably would have been enough
- Remove from oven and let cool for 5min
Enjoy! And tomorrow I'll blog about smoked salmon on my IslayBlog. Now I'm off to bed, my stomach filled up with another muffin I just ate while finishing this entry.
