Hello Readers,

I am sharing a very easy to make recipe today - "Banana Muffins". The entire procedure from "Prep to Bake" takes hardly 40 mins. This recipe doesn't contain all purpose flour and vegan friendly too.

• Banana - 2 
• Wheat flour - 1 cup
• Oil - 1/3 cup (any oil with neutral taste) 
• Brown sugar - 1/3 cup
• Baking powder - 1 tsp
• Baking soda - 1/2 tsp
• Salt - a pinch
• Vanilla essence - 1 1/2 tsp
• Chocochips - 2 tbsp (optional)

Procedure:

• Mash the bananas well along with brown sugar in a bowl
• Now, add oil and vanilla essence to the mashed bananas and give a good mix
• Mix all dry ingredients - wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in another bowl
• Add dry ingredients mix to the wet ingredients in 2 to 3 batches and mix slowly in a single direction, until there are no big lumps
• Finally, add two-thirds of the chocochips and mix the dough one last time
• Scoop in the dough and fill two-thirds of the muffin cups
• You can top up the muffins with 3-4 chocochips 
• Bake the muffins in preheated oven at 180° C or 350° F for 18-20 mins

Tips:

• Use ripe bananas for this recipe
• If you prefer, you can replace brown sugar with white sugar. In that case, reduce sugar to 1/4cup, or if you like your muffins very sweet, you can still go with 1/3cup
• I prefer to use sunflower oil for baking. You may use canola oil or vegetable oil too.
• You can bake without muffin cups as well, just ensure to grease the pan well. 
• Adding chocochips is completely optional
• Baking time specified here may vary depending on the type of oven you use. Insert a toothpick at the center of a muffin and it should come out clean, indicating it is properly baked. Otherwise continue baking for couple more minutes (i.e., until the toothpick comes clean)
