Whole Wheat Banana Muffins




I am terribly proud of my banana muffins. I spent many months developing this recipe. To get a light muffin, make sure to beat the egg mixture for at least 10 minutes with an electric beater. Makes all the difference.


Whole wheat Banana Muffins


Whisk together until thick

* 1 egg
* 3/4 cup dark brown sugar
   OR
* 3/4 cup grated dark jaggery
* 3 tbsp vegetable oil
* 1/2 cup thick yogurt blended with 1/2 cup milk


Sift together

* 2 cups wholewheat flour
* 1/2 tsp baking pwd
* 1/2 tsp baking soda
* 1 tsp ground cinnamon

Mix together

* 1/2 cup mashed over-ripe banana
* 3 dried  apricots, chopped / 2 tbsp sultanas
* 2 walnut halves, chopped

 



Add the banana mixture to the egg mixture

Pour the flour into the wet ingredients and fold in until just mixed. Don't stir too much. The mixture will/should not be smooth.

Spoon into muffin cases or directly into lightly greased muffin tins.





Bake in an oven pre-heated to 200 C for 15 minutes or until an inserted knife comes out clean.

Cool on a rack. Store them in an airtight container in the fridge. Warm and serve for a quick breakfast.
