My dad and one of my brothers hate bananas so growing up I never used to bake anything with bananas. However, Michael is a huge fan of anything banana flavored so I've tried a couple recipes before, but nothing that was good enough to repeat. Tonight I tried something a little bit different. I used a banana bread recipe but decided to make it into muffins. They were very easy and turned out really well, I will definitely make them again.
Ingredients
1/2 cup margarine, melted
1 cup white sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
about 3 very ripe bananas
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup chopped pecans (can be substituted with walnuts)
In a large bowl, stir together the melted margarine and sugar. Add the eggs and vanilla and mix well. While stirring, add in the flour, baking soda and salt and continue mixing until smooth.
Next, add in chunks of the bananas and using a wood spoon (or a hand mixer) mash the bananas while stirring until the bananas are in small pieces (or continue until they are completely mushed into the batter.
Next, add in the pecans and sour cream.
Stir until well combined. Spoon batter into lined cupcake tins. Bake at 350 degrees for about 25 - 30 minutes or until an inserted toothpick or knife comes out clean. Let cool for about 10 minutes and enjoy!
