120g unsalted butter, melted and cooled
450g ripe bananas, mashed

Preheat oven at 180°C

Grease a 12 cup muffin pan with butter or non stick cooking spray (or insert paper liners)

Bake for 20-25min

Makes 12 muffins

                                     

Toast the nuts on a baking sheet in the oven for about 10min, let them cool

Combine all the dry ingredients together

flour

baking powder

cooled nuts

In a seperate bowl combine all the wet ingredients

Add the wet mixture to the dry mixture and lightly combine together with a wooden spoon, just until the dry mixture is covered. The batter should be chunky NOT smooth.

                                  

Spoon the batter into the greased muffin pan. 

                                   

Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for 20-25 minutes.

Check with a toothpick if the muffins are ready, toothpick should come out dry and clean.

                                     

Let the muffins cool

                                    

*When I mix together muffin batter I count 10-15 folds, this way the muffins do not end up dry.
*Grease the pan with some butter using wax paper
*Use eggs that are room temperature
