Banana- Oat-Walnut Muffins


This recipe is especially for Eric from Journey to a Centum who is just over 6 weeks away from doing something incredible.

Aisling's Banana-Oat-Walnut Muffins

2 bananas mashed up
40g of shelled/ chopped walnuts
1 cup of oat flakes
2 and a half tea spoons of baking powder
350g flour (plain or self raising)
100g of castor sugar (ordinary sugar will do also)
115g butter
2 eggs
250ml of milk
a little pinch of cinnamon and salt

1. Heat the oven to 200 deg celcius, 400 far., Gas Mark 6
2. Sift the flour and baking powder together into mixing bowl and add sugar, cinnamon and salt.
3. Melt the butter gently in a sauce pan (pot).
4. Remove from heat and whisk in the eggs and the milk.
5. When it's all mixed, fold in the flower with the mashed bananas, oats and walnut pieces.


6. Spoon the muffin mixture into greased muffin tins or else cake cases for bun size.

7. Bake for 20 minutes or until golden.
8. Remove from oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes (if using cases, put cases on wire rack to cool).



This will make about 12 muffin size or 24 bun size. Enjoy!

You are an angel! Thank you for sharing your recipe with the blog world! I'm going to try this next week.

When I first looked at the ingredients I asked myself how much 4 og's was. Remember I'm a dumb american who has not stopped using the standard inches, feet, gallons, & oz. We don't even own and metric measuring spoons or cups.

No problem... I can do the math!

I'll let you know how they turned out!

Oh sorry Eric, forgot about your imperial measurements. Those are grams and the 'o' is a zero i.e. 40 (forty) grams. I haven't a clue how to convert but I suppose that's why they invented google! These are especially good as a breakfast muffin.
