Nigella’s recipe. Go Nigella!!!! I made them cause I felt like banana muffins and as a sign of solidarity for Nigella, who’s private life has been pissed all over in courts and tabloids recently.
I used 75g of melted butter, 250 g of self raising flour, 1 tsp of baking powder, 1/2 tsp of soda, pinch of salt, a good tsp of cinnamon, 115 of caster sugar, all waiting in the bowl apart from butter, that was awaiting its turn on the hob. I blitzed 2 ripe bananas, added to the dry ingredients, then 2 whole eggs, beaten, 1 tsp of vanilla paste, same amount of honey, that melted butter that was waiting and 125ml of milk. I also threw a handful of chopped walnuts, they were looking at me from the pantry shelf.
All this nicely combined went onto greased muffin tray, made me 12 nice muffins easily. Baked in 190 degrees for about 40 minutes, I kept on checking, as in the recipe Nigella said 20-25 minutes. The stick kept on coming out too moist for my liking.
The smell in the house- awesome. The taste, lovely, or, to quote Florian- pretty fucking good. I would be happy to throw one more banana in next time. And maybe even more cinnamon. Ha. 🙂
