                                  Banana Muffins 

Starting the baking series with muffins is to make sure that you get a good start. Many a time muffins come out perfect than the cake baked with the same batter !

To start with I am using refined flour, as this will give a lighter texture to the muffins.

Ingredients :

• 2 over ripe bananas
• 1 cup all purpose flour(maida)
• baking soda 1/2 tsp
• baking powder 3/4 tsp
• sugar 6 tbsp
• honey 2 tsp
• cinnamon powder 1/2 tsp
•  1/4 tsp vanilla
• butter 3-4 tbsp
• a pinch of salt
• a few nuts and raisins. 

Method : Grind bananas in a blender, add honey, melted butter, sugar and vanilla in it. Sift all the dry ingredients(maida, baking soda, baking pwdr) twice. Pour the liquid ingredients over the dry ones. Add cinnamon pwdr, salt, nuts & raisins and mix it lightly (don't over- mix the batter).                  

Preheat the oven to 180* c and grease the muffin moulds. Fill 2/3 of the moulds and bake it for 25 minutes.         

These muffins served with a glass of milk makes a great and healthy breakfast for kids and the elders..

Tip : Use the same batter to make delicious appams in an appam vessel, replace sugar with jaggary for much healthier option.
