Honey Banana Muffins

Getting ready to go grocery shopping tomorrow, I was cleaning out my fridge this evening and found a pair very ripe bananas hidden in the back. Never wanting to waste anything, I browsed Allrecipes for a nice recipe and found one. I did adapt it though, here's what I did:


Honey Banana Muffins

1 1/2 cup wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 cup mashed ripe bananas
1/2 cup sweetened applesauce
5 tablespoons honey
1/2 cup golden raisins
lining up the usual suspect, kittycat is alreayd bored to death at this point....

In a large bowl, combine the wheat flour
with the baking soda, cinnamon and salt.








Combine the eggs, banana, applesauce and honey.









Stir the wet ingredients into dry ingredients
until just moistened.








Fold in the raisins.









Coat muffin cups with nonstick cooking spray of use fillers
Fill two-thirds full with batter.











Bake at 375 degrees F for 15-18 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Pour yourself a nice glass of wine (Yep, it's Friday night, time to relax and enjoy the weekend)










Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks.











'Hmmmmm', does the kittycat think, suddenly wide awake ' those muffins sure look tasty!'


The muffins are nice and moist, I absolutely love the combination of banana with raisins and a subtle cinnamon flavour!! Next time I'll probably coat the muffins fillers with cooking spray, because they did tend to stick to the fillers.

The muffins sound perfect for anytime of day and they look wonderful. Good luck with the TWD biscotti. Yes, that pumpkin is real. By the time the flowers die off, I will use it for a mini jack-o-lantern. It's almost Halloween! ;o)
