Perfect Banana and Cinnamon Muffins

ByLisa Jayne 



For years I’ve loved baking, but I’m not always very good at it. Sometimes I can make amazing bakes, other times I can make more ‘meh’ kind of cakes. My skills really aren’t that great, and although I won’t be making star baker on GBBO anytime soon, my baking skills are slowly starting to improve. Recently I’ve started to perfect a few recipes, and one of my favourites is my banana and cinnamon muffins.




These muffins are quite basic, but when done well, they are super delicious. Because I’m pretty proud of how well my muffins have turned out, I wanted to share my recipe, and well show off a little at how good these muffins look. 




All you need is:


    

  • 200g plain flour (I used a gluten free one for these muffins)
    • 

  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
    • 

  • 1 teaspoon bicarbonate soda
    • 

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
    • 

  • 3 large bananas, mashed
    • 

  • 150g caster sugar
    • 

  • 1 egg
    • 

  • 75g butter, melted
    • 

  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
    • 









This is probably one of the quickest and easiest recipes I’ve baked for sometime, and it only really took me 10 minutes to prepare. All I had to do was:




    

  • Preheat the oven to 180 C / Gas 4. Place 12 paper baking cases in a muffin tin
    • 

  • Sift together the flour, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and salt and set aside
    • 

  • Combine mashed bananas, sugar, egg and melted butter in a large bowl. Fold in flour mixture, and mix until smooth
    • 

  • Spoon evenly into baking cases in muffin tin
    • 

  • Bake in preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes or until muffins spring back when lightly tapped
    • 







… And ta dahhhh! The perfect banana and cinnamon muffins!

    If you’ve been following me on my social accounts lately you might have seen that I’m on bit of a weightloss mission. My weight has been something that’s been an issue for me for a long time now. When I was a teenager I gained a lot of weight, mostly through making poor choices, and…

    Afternoon Tea At Moggerhanger Park

    A few months ago way back in July during the middle of a heatwave, my friend Gemma invited me out for afternoon tea at Moggerhanger Park. She wrote this amazing blog post on the experience, and because I’m a terrible person who can’t write about things after they’ve recently happened, I’m writing about the whole experience now, in October….

    We’re now just under a week until Christmas day! While a lot of people are completely organised, others might just have their Christmas wrapping left to do, and then every year there’s always someone who’s left their Christmas shopping until the last minute. If that’s you don’t worry, I’ve got some great last minute gift…

    Pizza Party

    Pizza is quite possibly, my biggest weakness, there’s not a day that goes by where I don’t think about pizza. Unfortunately for me Dominoes has caught on to this, and constantly text me with discount offers for pizzas, which really isn’t helping me trying to cut back and lose some weight. I’ve always struggled with…

    A few months ago me and my mum went on a little trip away to Manchester for a few days, mostly to visit the Coronation Street tour, but also to have a little girly holiday. I’d never been to Manchester before, and being the organised person I am, I decided to plan lots of other fun…
