Ingredients
2 cups All-purpose flour
1/4 cup Sugar
1 tbsp Baking powder
1/2 tsp Salt
1 cup Milk
1 Egg, beaten
1/3 cup Vegetable oil
3/4 cup Mashed banana
1/2 cup Chopped walnuts
Preparation
Preheat oven to 400 deg. Grease a 12-cup muffin pan. Sift flour, sugar, baking powder and salt into a medium bowl; make a well in the center. Mix milk, egg, oil, banana and walnuts in a small bowl. Pour mixture into well. Mix batter just until moistened; do not overmix. Spoon batter into prepared muffin cups. Bake until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean or until muffins are golden brown, about 15 minutes.
Cook's Notes
(1) Blueberries or raisins may be substituted for the mashed banana in this versatile muffin batter.
(2) Leftover muffins can go a long way. Lightly toast muffins, then crumble to create a tasty topping for fresh fruit salad or fruit compote.
(3) Save on preparation time. Sift flour right into a storage canister to have on hand for recipes that require sifted flour.
(4) To ensure round muffin tops, grease only the bottom and halfway up the sides of each muffin cup.
