PIES AND TACOS
Packed with mashed bananas and chopped nuts, they offer a delicious balance of sweetness and texture in every bite.
Firstly, we'll make the batter. In a bowl mash up your bananas. In another bowl, add the egg, melted butter, oil, sour cream, and vanilla. Whisk to combine. Add the mashed bananas and mix until smooth.
In another bowl, combine the dry ingredients. Add flour, brown sugar, white sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg and stir to combine.
Pour the wet ingredients over the dry mixture, mixing just until incorporated.
Fold in the chopped nuts and mix until evenly distributed. Cover the mixture and let it rest for 30 minutes for taller, fluffier muffins, though you can bake immediately if desired.
While the batter rests, make the caramelized nut topping. combine the chopped nuts of your choice, flour, sugar, and cinnamon. Stir to mix. Add the melted butter and stir until the mixture is evenly coated.
When baking, divide the batter evenly between the muffin cups, filling them nearly to the top. Sprinkle the caramelized nut topping over each muffin.
This Banana Nut Muffin recipe is the perfect combination of moist banana flavor and a crunchy caramelized nut topping.
