Yum
I would say that my Mom passed on her love of baking muffins to me. She used an old recipe from a book that is completely falling apart from usage. This recipe is the base for a homestyle muffin that's made with love. It's an adaptable basic recipe that I still use today.
We are going to change up that basic recipe and make some exciting muffins this morning. I always have an overripe banana in our house, just waiting for me to make a smoothie, banana bread, or as in today, a muffin.
Since it's summertime we always have an abundance of fruit around as well. Sometimes MGG goes way overboard with the fruit buying (that's another story!) which leaves us with bits and pieces of leftover various fruit. Today I found a scant 1 cup of blueberries hidden in the frig that were just calling my name.
Blueberries and Bananas? Yes ma'am! The flavor of tart blueberries and sweet bananas pair so well together. You are gonna love this flavor combination. The banana lends a sweetness and makes a really moist muffin and there's nothing better than biting into a hot juicy blueberry. What's better than a piping hot muffin spilling with berries fresh from the oven, made with love? Nothing!
Enjoy!
Homestyle Banana Blueberry Muffins
1 large ripe banana, mashed
1 large egg
1/2 c 2% milk
1/4 c canola oil
1 1/2 c flour
1/2 c sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
3/4 c fresh blueberries
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray a muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
In a large bowl mash the banana. Add the egg, milk, and oil. Mix together using a whisk to completely incorporate.
Add the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt to the egg mixture. Stir just until combined. Do not over mix. Fold in the blueberries.
Using a cookie scoop, add batter to the prepared muffin tins. Bake 18-20 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool 5-10 minutes in the tin. Serve warm or at room temperature.
