2. Here is a recipe for something you'll love. Though they aren't for baby and they are very sweet. A treat for mama!!
These are seriously so delicious you're going to bake them til you get sick of em. I LOVE THEM. so I try not to make them too often.
This recipe is adapted from Ina Garten. :)
Ingredients
- 3 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
- 2 cups sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 pound unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 2 extra-large eggs
- 3/4 cup whole milk
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup mashed ripe bananas (2 bananas)
- 1 cup medium-diced ripe bananas (1 banana)
- 1 cup small-diced walnuts
- 1 cup granola
- 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut
- Dried banana chips
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Line 24 muffin cups with paper liners. Sift (or don't sift.... I never do & they turn out perfectly fine...) the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Add the melted butter. Blend.
Combine the eggs, milk, vanilla, and mashed bananas in a small bowl (I usually just lightly beat the eggs, and then mash the bananas into them and add the milk and vanilla - to minimize dishes) and add them to the flour-and-butter mixture. Scrape the bowl and blend well. Don't overmix.
Fold the diced bananas, walnuts, granola, and coconut into the batter. Spoon the batter into the paper liners, filling each 1 almost to to the top... don't overfill these or they will get stuck to the pan and also look ugly haha. Top each muffin with a few sweetened banana chips. Pop those babies in the over for 25-30 min, or until the tops are brown and a toothpick comes out clean. Enjoy!
Notes: For the granola I use a blend called "rainforest granola" that I get out of the bins from my natural foods grocer. It has all sorts of stuff in it. Like Brazil nuts for example! SO DELICIOUS.
My suggestion is to make these for a crowd, they just don't keep well. unfortunately..
