Banana Nut Muffins - Master Cookbook Recipe # 153

Using self-rising flour and oil ensures these muffins stay incredibly moist and tender. The mashed bananas provide natural sweetness and a beautiful aroma that fills the whole kitchen. If you're looking for a healthier alternative, you can simply omit the 1/2 cup of sugar and the streusel topping,the bananas provide plenty of flavor on their own!

Ingredients

  • 2 cups self-rising flour
  • 1 cup mashed ripe bananas (about 2-3 medium bananas)
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/3 cup cooking oil
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup sugar (optional)
  • 1/2 cup chopped nuts (pecans or walnuts)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Topping: Streusel Topping (Master Cookbook Recipe # 151)

Instructions

  1. Mix: In a large mixing bowl, combine the self-rising flour, mashed bananas, milk, oil, egg, sugar (if using), chopped nuts, and vanilla. Stir until the ingredients are just blended,be careful not to over-mix!
  2. Fill: Grease a standard 12-cup muffin pan thoroughly. Distribute the batter evenly among all 12 cups.
  3. Top: For that extra special touch, sprinkle each muffin generously with your prepared Streusel Topping (Recipe #151).
  4. Bake: Bake at 350°F for 25 to 30 minutes.
  5. Test: The muffins are done when they are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Notes

Tammy’s Tip: "The darker those bananas are, the sweeter your muffins are going to be! I love to use pecans because they give it that real Southern flair. If you're watching your sugar, just leave out the extra sugar and that topping; they're still just as moist and delicious for a quick breakfast. They'll keep your family coming back for seconds, for sure!"
