Muffins are some of my favorite, most-satisfying recipes to make for breakfast because they are fast, flavorful, and easy to change depending on what ingredients are available.
Today I had one very ripe banana and was craving some chocolate, so I made chocolate banana muffins.
This recipe makes 1 dozen muffins.
Ingredients:
1 3/4 c flour
3/4 c sugar
2 1/2 t baking powder
3/4 t salt
1/2 c cocoa powder
1 beaten egg
1 mashed banana
1 c milk
1/3 c oil
Variations:
Regular muffins: reduce sugar to 1/3 c, reduce milk to 3/4 c, omit cocoa powder
To these you can add 3/4 c chocolate chips, blueberries, nuts, chopped apples + 1 t cinnamon, or mashed banana. If adding banana use 1/2 c milk.
You will need 2 bowls, 1 large & 1 medium. In the medium bowl combine all wet ingredients with a whisk: egg, milk, oil, banana, & sugar. Sift the dry ingredients into the large bowl and make a well in the center. Pour the wet mixture into the well & mix together quickly so the batter is still lumpy & just moistened. Do not overmix!
Divide into a greased muffin tin or loaf pan. If making muffins, bake at 400 F for 18 mins. If making a loaf bake at 350 F for 30 mins. They are done when golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean. Enjoy warm!
