Banana Muffins

I had some over-ripe leftover bananas which were put to good use for these muffins...soft and just sweet enough to quench our cravings. You can have them for breakfast or sneak it in for a mid-day snack. Enjoy!

All Purpose flour- 195 gms
Baking Powder- 2 tsp
Baking Soda- 1 tsp
Granulated Sugar- 115 gms
Egg- 1
Bananas- 3, extra ripe ones mashed
Buttermilk- 1 cup
Oil- 2 tbsp
Vanilla Extract- 1 tsp

Preheat oven to 190C.
Keep a 12 hole muffin tin ready...either line it with muffin cases or lightly spray the tray with cooking oil or butter
Mix all the dry ingredients together in a mixing bowl.
In another bowl beat the egg, add the mashed banana, buttermilk, oil and vanilla.
Make a well in the centre of the dry ingredients and pour the wet ingredients. Mix just until well incorporated..not too much.
Spoon into muffin cups till about 3/4th full.
Bake for 20 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean.
Take it out of the oven, cool for about 15 minutes in the tin and then turn it onto a rack and cool completely.

I am sending these muffins to the CoL- Leftover Delicacies event hosted by Spicy Lounge. If you have made something with leftovers...then yes, this is the event to take part in.

These look awesome..too bad if they dont participate..you can send me dear..after all you made from a leftover banana..anything which cannot be eaten as such and used in a different form qualifies.. :)

Well, I hope MV waits until next week. If not, I can always go some other time. I have been waiting patiently for winter to buzz off so I can have some outdoor fun.Yes, rafting is plenty of fun. But not the day after when my arms scream of fatigue..
