TRAIL MIX MUFFINS



Trail Mix Muffins image

I made these for breakfast on a whim. I wanted muffins but couldn't seem to locate a suitable addition, until I came across a Nut and Berries trail mix. I thought, "Why not?". The muffins turned out crispy and sweet on the outside, and fluffy yummy on the inside. The batter is thicker than usual muffin batter, which I like because it's easier to spoon them into a tin.

Time 30m

Yield 8 muffins, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup milk
2/3 cup vegetable oil
1 egg
1 tablespoon vanilla bean paste
1 cup trail mix, with granola, nuts and dried berries

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Mix together flour, baking soda, salt and sugar in a mixing bowl.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk the milk, oil, egg and vanilla together until the egg is beaten well.
  • Pour the liquid into the flour mixture and stir just enough to combine (it's important not over mix muffins). The batter will be thicker than typical muffin batter, but that's ok. It's also okay if it's a little bit lumpy.
  • Stir in the trail mix.
  • Spoon the batter into a greased muffin tin, filling the cups most of the way and bake for 25 minutes.
  • Turn out the muffins onto a clean kitchen town and let cool for a few minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the muffins tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a variety of trail mix: Feel free to use any type of trail mix you like. Just make sure it doesn't have any large pieces of nuts or candy that could choke a child.
  • Don't overfill the muffin cups: Fill the muffin cups no more than 2/3 full, or the muffins will overflow in the oven.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This usually takes about 20-25 minutes.

Conclusion:

These banana trail mix muffins are a delicious and healthy snack that are perfect for on-the-go. They're also a great way to use up ripe bananas. With their sweet banana flavor and crunchy trail mix topping, these muffins are sure to be a hit with kids and adults alike.
