HEALTHY BANANA BREAD MUFFINS



Healthy Banana Bread Muffins image

A banana bread muffin so light, fluffy and tender, you'd never guess it's made with mostly whole-wheat flour. Using very ripe bananas keeps the muffins moist and minimizes the amount of sugar you add.

Time 1h20m

Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup whole-wheat flour (see Cook's Note)
1/2 cup all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
5 tablespoons coconut oil, melted
1/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 large egg whites, at room temperature
1 1/2 cups mashed very ripe banana (about 3 large bananas)
1/2 cup chopped walnuts, optional

Steps:

  • Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners. Whisk together the whole-wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl.
  • Whisk together the coconut oil, brown sugar, maple syrup, vanilla and egg whites in a separate medium bowl until well combined. Stir in the mashed banana. Add the dry ingredients to the wet and stir until combined. Stir in the chopped walnuts if using.
  • Fill the lined muffin cups about three-quarters of the way with the batter (a generous 1/4 cup in each; see Cook's Note). Bake on the center rack until a cake tester or toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes, then remove the muffins to a wire rack to cool completely.

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, lightly beat the eggs, add the melted butter, and the milk/barley mixture.

  • Fold in the pecans and raisins.
  • For the optional topping, mix together all the ingredients until coarse crumbs form.
  • Pour the batter into either a greased loaf pan or muffin tins.
  • If desired, sprinkle on the crumb topping.
  • Bake muffins for about 25 minutes, and the bread for about 35-40 minutes.

HEARTY BREAKFAST MUFFINS



Hearty Breakfast Muffins image

Healthy, hearty breakfast muffins. These have a lightly sweet flavor and lots of wholesome ingredients to get your day started. Moist, chewy, and not overly dense. Easily customizable! You can use any flavor of yogurt, but I prefer plain Greek yogurt. Customize with your favorite nuts or seeds, zucchini or squash, cooked sweet potato, raisins or cranberries, etc. Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your bread or muffins will be.
  • Mash the bananas well: Make sure to mash the bananas until they are completely smooth, with no lumps.
  • Use a combination of flours: Using a combination of whole wheat flour and all-purpose flour gives the bread or muffins a lighter texture and a nutty flavor.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make the bread or muffins tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake at a moderate temperature: Baking the bread or muffins at a moderate temperature (350°F) helps to prevent them from drying out.
  • Let the bread or muffins cool completely before slicing: This will help to prevent them from crumbling.

Conclusion:

These healthy breakfast bread or muffins are a delicious and nutritious way to start your day. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Whether you like them plain or with nuts, seeds, or fruit, these bread or muffins are sure to be a hit. So next time you're looking for a healthy and satisfying breakfast, give this recipe a try!
