Banana, blueberries and dried fruit give these muffins plenty of flavour. This archive recipe is a handy option when you want something to bake and share, with a cup of tea or alongside breakfast.
Use a ripe banana that is easy to mash, and have the muffin tin ready before you mix the batter.
Ingredients
- 2 cups wholemeal flour
- ¼ cup bran
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 cup raisins or sultanas
- 1 very ripe banana, mashed
- 1 cup soy milk
- ¼ cup honey
- ¼ cup apple juice concentrate
- 2 egg whites
- 1 cup blueberries
- A little butter for greasing, or muffin cases
Method
- Heat the oven to 180°C. Line or grease enough muffin holes for the mixture; yield depends on the tin size.
- Mix the flour, bran and baking powder in a bowl. Stir through the raisins or sultanas.
- In another bowl, combine the banana, soy milk, honey, apple juice concentrate and egg whites.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Fold in the blueberries.
- Divide the mixture between the muffin holes, leaving room for it to rise.
- Bake for about 15–20 minutes, checking that the centres are cooked through. Larger muffins may take longer.
- Leave in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
Before you bake
Set out the dry and wet ingredients in separate bowls before combining them. Keep the blueberries aside until the last mixing step so you can fold them through gently.
