OK, you had to know this was coming.
Roasted banana and honey muffins
Dry ingredients:
1 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice (although you could use cinnamon or maybe just nutmeg)
1/4 teaspoon salt
Wet ingredients:
2 eggs
1 cup roasted banana (about 2 1/2 bananas, roasted, skin on, at 400 for about 20 minutes)
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce (those little snack cups are exactly a half-cup, who knew!)
5 Tablespoons honey ( I used honey from Tom and Jan’s bees…delish!)
Then what:
Combine all wet ingredients. Separately, combine all dry ingredients. Mix dry ingredients into wet ingredients.
Bake at 375 for about 16 minutes.
All in all, this is a nicely healthy muffin recipe. Of course you could add a smudge of Nutella on top. Or a bit of cream cheese frosting, if you happened to have some of that left over. Not saying I did that….
Yum, the roasted banana must be delish! I had banana nut pancakes this weekend at Atwaters and they were awesome. They must use wheat flour or something like that. They tasted a little like Dad’s pancakes!!! Dad makes good, healthy pancakes.
Truth be told I’m not sure I noticed any roasty quality to the bananas. I didn’t make a test batch with unroasted bananas however, so who knows. Maybe that should be my next experiment!
YUM!
