WHOLE-GRAIN BANANA YOGURT MUFFINS
Whole-wheat flour gives these muffins a rich, nutty flavor that's extra satisfying on fall days. Even though this recipe uses all whole-grain flour, the muffins stay light and tender in texture and delicate in taste. Combining the dry ingredients with a large proportion of wet - bananas, yogurt, oil and honey - keeps these from being dry and heavy. Plus, the acidity of yogurt and honey help mellow out the tannic taste of whole wheat. Because these muffins are so tender, their flat tops crack a bit instead of doming. You can adorn them and add crunch by sprinkling with oats, seeds, chopped nuts, grated coconut or cacao nibs before baking.

Tips:
- Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your muffins will be.
- Mash the bananas well: Make sure the bananas are mashed until smooth, with no lumps. This will help the muffins to be light and fluffy.
- Use whole wheat flour: Whole wheat flour is a healthier choice than all-purpose flour, and it gives the muffins a nutty flavor.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the muffins tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Fill the muffin cups only 2/3 full: This will allow the muffins to rise properly.
- Bake the muffins at a high temperature for a short time: This will help the muffins to rise quickly and evenly.
- Let the muffins cool completely before serving: This will help them to hold their shape.
Conclusion:
These easy whole wheat banana muffins are a delicious and healthy snack or breakfast option. They're made with simple ingredients and can be made in just a few minutes. So next time you have some ripe bananas on hand, give this recipe a try! You won't be disappointed.
