Banana Muffins

Our first baking adventure : Banana Muffins



 The summer has begun and we are ready to bake up a storm! (forgive my constant cheesiness... I cant help it...). This will officially be our first baked good post for The Sweetest Things.

Since it is our first post, how fitting for it to be a breakfast item, the first meal of the day!

Jenny (aka. The Queen of Baking) has concocted a delicious Banana Muffin recipe for us!
I tried them myself, and they are to die for!

Here's the recipe:

Ingredients:
1 3/4 cup flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
1 cup banana (2 - 3 bananas)
1 egg
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup sugar

Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
Sift together: flour, baking powder, and baking soda.
Blend in a blender: bananas, egg, vegetable oil, salt, and sugar until combined.
Mix the wet into the dry ingredients.
Pour mixture into muffin tin, fill 2/3rds of the way.
Bake for 15 minutes.

*if you make mini muffins, they will only need 8-10 minutes!
