These are delicious with macadamia nuts, but are also very good with the more traditional pecans or walnuts. This recipe is less sweet than some muffin recipes - which I think makes them perfect for breakfast. Try them plain, or cut in half and toast in a toaster oven with butter. Ingredients:
1 cup mashed banana (2 to 3 medium) |
1/2 cup vegetable oil |
1/3 cup milk |
1/3 cup chopped macadamia nuts (or walnuts or pecans) |
1 egg |
1 cup whole wheat flour |
1 cup white flour |
1/3 cup packed brown sugar |
1 tablespoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 400. Grease muffin cups, or line with paper baking cups.
2. Beat mashed banana, oil, milk, nuts, and egg with a spoon in a medium bowl.
3. Stir in remaining ingredients just until moistened (batter will be lumpy, so don't be tempted to overbeat).
4. Spoon batter into muffin pan.
5. Bake about 20 minutes at 400, just until golden brown. Immediately remove from cups.
