Title: Banana Molasses Muffins
Categories: Bread Fruit Muffins
Yield: 4 Servings
| 3 | | Bananas; Ripe, Md |
| 1 | | Egg; Large, Unbeaten |
| 2/3 | c | Sugar |
| 2 | tb | Light Molasses Or Syrup |
| 2 | tb | Shortening, Melted |
| 2 | c | Whole Wheat Flour |
| 1 | ts | Baking Powder |
| 1 | ts | Baking Soda |
| 1/2 | ts | Salt |
| 1 | c | Walnuts; Chopped, Optional |
Mash the bananas until no lumps remain. Add the unbeaten egg, mixing well.
Beat in the sugar, molasses and the shortening. (NOTE: The secret of this
recipe is to mix the above ingredients well until very smooth.) Sift the
flour, baking power, soda, and salt together and add to the liquid mixture.
As these are a quick bread, do not beat the dry mixture into the liquid but
rather fold it in only until it is moistened and no streaks remain. Spoon
the mixture into a muffin tin that has been sprayed with a non-stick
coating. Bake at 350 degrees F for 20 to 25 minutes or until done. Serve
warm.
