I am not really very big on baking,
cooking is definitely my thaaang...
but there are a few things, which I would refer to
as relatively savoury bakes...
and banana loaf or banana muffins is definitely one of them!
So in the spirit of pleasing
our resident @steemitbloggers "BANANA BOY" @amarbir
I decided to make some banana muffins with a little twist...
#WhatsCookingChallenge - Deliciously Moist Peanut Butter and Banana Muffins
🍴
This is a seriously easy recipe and doesn't even require a blender.
You can blend the ingredients, but personally I prefer the moistness
of the small banana chunks in the muffins.
What you need:
3 over ripe bananas
1 1/2 cups of sifted all-purpose flour
1/3 cup of melted butter
1 teaspoon of baking soda
A pinch of salt
A heaped tablespoon of melted / softened peanut butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup of sugar if you would like it less sweet, 1 full cup if you like it sweeter
1 large egg
🍴
So you can start with melting the butter in a bowl
and adding the peanut butter,
stirring until both are combined nicely....
Then peel your bananas
and throw them into a mixing bowl,
along with the vanilla essence, sifted flour,
baking soda, beaten egg and sugar
Add the melted butter
and peanut butter...
Now comes the FUN and really messy part
(if you are not going to use a blender)...
You may want to have some hot soapy water on hand...
Blend the ingredients
by giving them all a good hand massage!
haha!
Once they resemble something like this...
you are good to go!
Grab your muffin tray
and place even dollops into each section.
Do smaller dishings first and then add to them
if you have enough mixture left over.
That way you ensure you get pretty even spreadings...
Pop them into the preheated oven
for approx. 50 minutes
and once they are looking golden and delicious
you can test them by sticking a skewer stick
or a knife through the centre of one of the muffins.
If the skewer comes out clean, they are done!
Just remember to NEVER open the oven whilst they are still baking,
as then they will flop... and drop... haha!
I really love these muffins,
they are SO moist and yummy!
In fact I normally make them with one other ingredient added,
and that is dry oats.
The oats give them such a fabulous texture,
but I did not have any oats on hand at the time,
so made do with what I had :)
Also, the crunchy peanut butter is also great!
You really can get quite creative with the "additions"
with things such as chocolate chips etc.
And for me, they are best eaten warm,
with a spread of real butter...
YUMMY!!!
Enjoy
🍴
Until next time...
Much Love from Cape Town, South Africa xxx

That sounds absolutely delicious! I don't bake much, but banana bread happens on a regular basis. Great idea mixing the PB in. :)
Thanks @katrina-ariel and yes... it is indeed an awesome flavour twist... and as mentioned at the end... so are the oats if you have them handy 😁
I need to shutup now because I am making myself hungry hahaha!!
Yes, oats! Sometimes I blend them for oat flour and mix that with spelt or whatever flour I'm using, but nice to have the texture of whole oats as well. I always get hungry reading these food posts. lol!
Sounds AMA-zing! Will have to try the recipe, I am sure my little guy would love them!
Oh for sure @sweetpea!! If he likes bananas and peanutbutter... then you will have a winner, no doubt. Hehehe :)
Oh darn the luck- I happen to have four over-ripe bananas on my kitchen island and was almost thinking of making plain ol' banana muffins... BUT, I love peanut butter and this would be a nice change up!
Perfect timing!!
Hehehe AWESOME @goldendawne!! Hope you enjoy them 😁
Oh and... how much oats to add? Have to get the extra fiber here. I would guess about 1/2 cup?
Yes I am not a big one for precise measurements myself haha... and thats about the amount i would throw in. :)
These look soooo yummy! I love that they are so easy!
Thanks @rwedegis and yes they are both VERY easy and YUMMY! haha :)
I love banana muffins but have my had them with the peanut butter- sounds delicious 😋
Pimp'd Banana Muffins ;)
Delicious - I saw that Amarbir asked about no eggs - may i suggest to use self raising flour and more peanut butter - just a thought.
Good Idea.... @amarbir...
Will it work? I have no idea about anything kitchen related. Lol.
That's a great food photography..
Thank you :)
This sounds so yummy and it looks delicious and easy to make.
I'll definitely will be making these
Thanks for sharing @jaynie
hehe Thanks @joalvarez! I hope you enjoy them )
Alright. Haha. Now we're talking. Can you use something else other than an egg to bind the mixture. I don't eat eggs but I really really reallllllllllllllly do want to try out this recipe. Thank you very much. Have a nice day.
My mom answered you in her comment @amarbir :)
Thank you Mom of Bosslady.
Looks and sounds delish! Baking is not really my thang, either... but I love baked goods. Ironic, no?
hahaha!!! You and the rest of the world @denmarkguy ;)
Looks delicious! Thanks for sharing. 🍌
My pleasure... and thank you for the compliment :)
It seems delicious, I will try it soon ❤
This looks yummy!
I used to make banana bread muffins quite often but never tried them with peanut butter.
Thanks for sharing this recipe! :)
Hope you enjoy them If You do give them a go ;)
Now you're talking!
What would the difference be if i were to reduce the amount of Butter by half?
Taking time before going to work at the moment. Id love one if those with my coffee right now.
These sound delicious! Through the pics I can see how moist and fluffy they are! And i love that its a simple recipe😊 The PB sounds like a great twist to it🤗 thanks for sharing @jaynie!
Oh I have gotta try that!
These have got to be delicious! 💕 gotta give them a try in one of my videos 😎 haha. I usually stick with blueberry muffins. I'm used to that lol.
Uhm, can I get one of those please... I am so hungry right now.. all the food posts I'm reading on steemitbloggers are making me go crazy for food.
