Muffins are one of the easiest foods to bake. All we need are flour, leavening, salt, butter, sugar, eggs and milk. You may add such ingredients like banana, cranberry, blueberry, carrot, chocolate chips, nuts, etc. These ingredients are just mixed together and then baked. The resultant muffins will be sweet. However, muffins can also be savoury. By using vegetables like spinach, corn, zucchini, spring onion, peppers, etc with cheese you will be able to bake savoury muffins.
Ingredient:
- 4 ripe bananas, weighing about 100 g each (I use only Pisang Berangan.)
- 250 g all-purpose flour
- 115 g sugar (You may reduce if your bananas are very ripe and sweet. I usually half the amount of sugar if my bananas are very ripe.)
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 115 g melted butter
- 1/4 tsp vanilla essence
- 2 eggs
- Chocolate chips, the amount is up to you.
Method:
- Preheat oven to 175 degree C.
- Line a 12-hole muffin pan with muffin liners. (If you do not have muffin liners, you may use cupcake liners.
- Mash the bananas. Then set aside.
- Add the dry ingredients - all-purpose flour, sugar, salt, baking powder and baking soda - into a mixing bowl. Stir to combine all the ingredients evenly.
- Add the wet ingredients - banana, melted butter, vanilla essence and eggs into another bowl. Stir to combine these ingredients.
- Then add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Stir until both are well-combined.
- Add chocolate chips to the batter and mix them up.
- Scoop the batter into the muffin liners.
- Bake in preheated oven for 18-20 minutes.
- When done, remove the muffins from the muffin tin and let them cool down on a metal rack.
