Banana Mini Muffins #MuffinMonday

Sweet fluffy bites, perfect with a glass of cold milk or a cup of hot tea, your family will eat these banana mini muffins in a flash.

I am a fan of baking mini muffins because they tend disappear more quickly than the full-size ones. I put these on the table after dinner last night and even though everyone had eaten well, they each took a mini muffin for dessert. Yay! I tell you, that would never have happened with normal muffins.

Banana Mini Muffins

These little guys are a great recipe for using up that last banana that always languishes at the end of a bunch, brown and speckled but oh so sweet. 

Ingredients 

1 cup or 125g all-purpose flour

1/4 cup, firmly packed, or 50g light brown sugar

3/4 teaspoons baking powder

1/4 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 ripe banana (about 1/2 cup or 125g)

1/4 cup or 60ml canola or other light oil

2 tablespoons Greek yogurt

1 egg

Method

Preheat the oven to 375°F or 190°C. Prepare your 12-cup mini muffin pan by greasing it or line it with paper liners. 

Mash your banana with a fork in a mixing bowl.

Add in the oil, yogurt and egg and whisk them together with the banana.

Lightly whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in another mixing bowl to combine.

Fold the wet ingredients into flour mixture until just moistened.

Divide batter among the muffin cups. I love my little scoop for this job but if you don’t have one, a spoon will do.

Bake the muffins in your preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 12-15 minutes. Cool in the pan for a few minutes then remove the muffins from the pan and continue to cool on a wire rack.

Enjoy!
