One good thing is coming out of staying at home during this COVID-19 outbreak - we are cooking almost all of our meals and treats at home now. I will admit that we have been eating from restaurants way too much over the past few years. This is helping us break the habit.

Sometimes I make my favourite recipes which are posted here on my blog, and sometimes I try new ones like this easy recipe for banana bread muffins.

The original recipe says it makes 12 muffins but my kids can never stop at one. I decided to make 20 smaller ones for that reason.

Simple Banana Bread Muffins

Adapted from Twins and Coffee

Makes 12-20 Muffins

Ingredients

3 medium bananas, very ripe
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup oil (I use avocado in my baking - mine has no flavour)
1 1/2 cup all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup white sugar
1/3 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon cinnamon (I left this out)
1 pinch nutmeg

Directions

Preheat oven to 350F and line your muffin tins with 12-20 liners.
In a large bowl, mash together bananas, egg, vanilla and oil. It's okay if it's lumpy.
Sift the dry ingredients into the same bowl (because I don't wanna wash 2 bowls), and fold everything together just until combined.
Divide the mixture among your prepared muffin cups and bake for 12-15 minutes or until a tester comes out clean.
Cool in the pan before serving.
