Number Of Ingredients 6

Nonstick cooking spray, for spraying the muffin tin
3/4 cup frozen pitted cherries, thawed, halved and well drained
3 very ripe bananas
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 large eggs
Confectioners' sugar, for dusting, optional

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F. Spray a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray. Line a plate with 2 layers of paper towels and place the cherries on top to dry briefly. Put the bananas in a large bowl and mash them very thoroughly with a fork. Add the vanilla and mix and mash to combine. Add the eggs and whisk until well beaten. Divide the cherries evenly among the muffin cups, then pour in the banana custard (each cup will be about three-quarters full). Bake until the muffins are domed and set, 12 to 14 minutes. Run a thin knife around the edge of each muffin and remove with a small offset spatula. Cool slightly. Dust with powdered sugar if using and serve.

Provided by MJH

Number Of Ingredients 15

DRY INGREDIENTS:
1/2 cup sugar (use 3/4 cup if your bananas are not ripe enough and kiwis are tart)
2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
WET INGREDIENTS:
3/4 cup low-fat plain yogurt, plain or vanilla
6 tablespoons skim milk, or buttermilk
3 tablespoons canola oil
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large ripe bananas, mashed
3 ripe kiwi, chopped into small cubes

Steps:

  • Combine the first 6 ingredients (dry) in a large mixing bowl; set aside. Mix yogurt, milk, oil, egg, vanilla and mashed bananas together in a smaller bowl until well-combined (wet). Add wet mixture to the dry mixture, mix until just combined (do not overmix) - lumps are ok. Now stir in chopped kiwi gently; you may also add chopped nuts if you like. Bake in a pre-heated oven at 375°F or 180°C for 25 to 30mins (mini muffins take about 20 minutes). Cool in pan for 10 minutes, then remove and cool thoroughly on wire rack.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas for a sweeter muffin.
  • Mash the bananas well to ensure they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  • Be sure to use fresh cherries for the best flavor. If using frozen cherries, thaw them completely before using.
  • Do not overmix the batter, as this can result in tough muffins.
  • Fill the muffin cups no more than 2/3 full, as they will rise during baking.
  • Bake the muffins at a high temperature for the first few minutes, then reduce the heat to finish baking.
  • Allow the muffins to cool completely before frosting or storing.

Conclusion:

These banana cherry custard muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. The muffins are moist and fluffy, with a sweet banana flavor and a hint of cherry. The custard filling adds a creamy richness that takes these muffins to the next level. Whether you are looking for a quick breakfast or a sweet snack, these muffins are sure to hit the spot.
