Muffins

Sav and I love to cook together and often we make muffins. Mommy loves to eat them, Sav loves to eat them, so we make them often. I had a muffin mix in the cabinet and I thought we would make them. Nice, quick, just what I was looking for. I had Sav help pour the mix in the bowl, pour in the water, and stir. Then I said it was time to scoop them and she started bawling. Confused...Then Sav says she needs more ingredients "Baking soda, vanilla, eggs,..." She is a used to getting muffins from scratch and apparently quick and easy was not what she was looking for. Oh goodness. Here is our favorite recipe to make:

Banana Muffins - from Steph Hoyle
Makes 16-17 muffins

Ingredients:

3/4 C Sugar

1/2 stick butter

3 bananas

2 eggs

1 tsp vanilla

1/3 C yogurt - any flavor/kind

2 C flour* 

3/4 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

Optional - nuts, chocolate chips, blueberries, etc.

*You can substitute 1/2 C chia seeds for 1/2 C flour if you'd like. Steph recommends only subbing 1/4 C per 1 C flour in a recipe. I like to grind my Chia seeds into a flour first and then use them. 

1. Cream together sugar and butter

2. Add eggs one at a time, bananas, vanilla, and yogurt while blending

3. Add dry ingredients. Mix.

4. Bake at 350 degrees for 15-17 minutes
