Yield Serves 12

Number Of Ingredients 10

Butter, for greasing
100g dairy fudge
3 very ripe bananas
1 large free-range egg
3 tbsp milk
3 tbsp vegetable oil
Few drops of vanilla extract
250g self-raising flour
1 tsp baking powder
125g golden caster sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C/fan160°C/gas 4. Line a 12-hole muffin tin with paper cases. If you don't have paper cases, just grease the tin really well: tear off a piece of butter wrapper and use it to rub a little piece of butter all over the insides of the holes.
  • Break the fudge into small pieces, or cut into small pieces using a small knife and set aside. Put the bananas into a bowl and mash them, either with your hands (if they are clean!) Or a potato masher until fairly smooth. Crack the egg onto the bananas. Add the milk, oil and vanilla and use a fork to mix everything together well.
  • Sift the flour and baking powder into another large bowl. Add the sugar and fudge pieces, keeping some for the tops. Pour the egg mixture into the flour and stir together. Don't stir it too much - you want to keep some air inside so that the muffins are light when they are cooked.
  • Spoon the mixture into the muffin cases and sprinkle a little fudge over the top of each muffin. Bake for 20 minutes. Ask an adult to help you remove the tin from the oven. To test if the muffins are cooked, carefully poke a skewer into the middle of one. It should come out clean (except for a little bit of fudge). Leave to cool on a wire rack before you eat them as the fudge will be very hot.

BANOFFEE MUFFINS



Banoffee Muffins image

This recipe was taken from "The New Muffin", a low fat/no fat alternative to an old favourite. They are exceedingly delicious. Technically they are supposed to make 12 large muffins, but since I have a mini muffin tin and you can purchase mini gingernuts, I made use of that instead. I also caramelised light condensed milk, instead of purchasing a pre-caramelised can as was originally suggested.

Categories     Quick Breads

Time 25m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

12 ginger nuts (or one per muffin)
1 cup flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 bananas (mashed)
1/2 cup caramelised condensed milk
1/4 cup canola oil
1 egg
1/4 cup milk
sliced almonds

Steps:

  • If you need to caramelise your condensed milk, here is the technique I used. Firstly, measure out your 1/2 C into a small pie plate. Cover this with tinfoil. Place this pie dish inside a larger one and fill that with water. Cook in the oven for about an hour at 425 degrees F. This should make it thick and caramel coloured. It is not recommended to heat it in the tin. There are other techniques available using the stove top or the microwave.
  • Place your gingernuts in the bottom of the muffin pans. A slight spray of cooking oil might help here as they proved a little difficult to extract intact without it.
  • Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Sift together flour and baking powder and stir in the sugar. Make a well in the centre.
  • Mix together the caramelised condensed milk and mashed bananas in a separate bowl.
  • Whisk together oil, egg and milk and combine with caramel bananas.
  • Fold these into the dry ingredients and spoon into muffin trays. Mixture is quite runny.
  • Sprinkle almonds on top of each muffin, to taste.
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes.
  • Eat and enjoy.

BANOFFEE MUFFINS WITH CREAM & SALTED CARAMEL



Banoffee muffins with cream & salted caramel image

Give much-loved banana bread a modern update it by transforming it into tasty muffins iced with fresh cream and a moreish salted caramel sauce

Categories     Afternoon tea, Dessert, Treat

Time 50m

Yield Makes 12

Number Of Ingredients 16

100g unsalted butter , melted, plus extra for the tin
4 ripe bananas
50g full-fat natural yogurt , plus 2 tbsp
100g spelt flour
120g plain flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp ground cardamom
2 eggs
160g golden caster sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
40g walnuts , broken
200ml double cream
40g unsalted butter , diced
150ml double cream
130g light muscovado sugar
generous pinch sea salt

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Prepare a muffin tin by thoroughly buttering and lining with cases. In a bowl, mash three bananas, then stir in 50g yogurt. In another bowl, sift in the flours, baking powder, cardamom and a pinch of salt, and stir to combine.
  • Add the eggs and sugar to the bowl of a stand mixer, then whisk until pale and frothy - about 3 mins. Slowly pour in the melted butter in a steady stream, then add the vanilla. Turn the speed down, then add the flour mixture, 2 tbsp at a time, alternating with the yogurt and banana mix, until everything is incorporated. Mix in the walnuts for no longer than 20 seconds. Divide the mixture between the muffin cases. Bake for 25-30 mins or until a skewer inserted comes out clean.
  • Meanwhile, make the salted caramel by heating the butter, cream and sugar in a non-stick pan until simmering. Remove from the heat, then add the salt - you want enough to pique the sauce, but it shouldn't taste salty.
  • Once the muffins are cooked, remove from the oven and leave to cool on a wire rack. Whip the cream to soft peaks, fold through 2 tbsp yogurt and slice the final banana. Spoon or pipe the cream onto the muffins. Top with the sliced banana and drizzle with salted caramel.

Tips:

  • Choosing ripe bananas: Use ripe bananas with brown spots on their skins. These bananas are sweeter and have a more intense flavor.
  • Measuring flour: To ensure accuracy, use a kitchen scale to measure the flour. If using measuring cups, fluff the flour with a spoon before scooping it into the cup.
  • Mixing the ingredients: Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in tough muffins. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Baking the muffins: Preheat the oven to the correct temperature before baking the muffins. This helps to ensure even baking.
  • Cooling the muffins: Allow the muffins to cool in the muffin pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. This helps to prevent the muffins from breaking.

Conclusion:

Banoffee muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dessert. They are perfect for special occasions or everyday snacking. With their sweet banana flavor, gooey toffee filling, and whipped cream topping, these muffins are sure to be a hit with everyone.
