Raspberry Banana Muffins



Before baking these, I didn't think it was possible to really enjoy a muffin that doesn't contain chocolate. However, I combined a few recipes to make these as a 'healthier' muffin choice and they were great.

Ingredients
Makes 20

2 1/2 cups self raising flour
pinch salt
110g butter, melted
2/3 cup brown sugar
3 eggs
3 ripe bananas, mashed (medium size)
2/3 cup milk
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 cup fresh or frozen raspberries

Method:
  • Preheat oven to 160c (180c for conventional oven)
  • Sift flour into a bowl
  • In a separate bowl, whisk butter and sugar together.  Then whisk in eggs
  • Add banana, milk and vanilla to butter mixture
  • Add flour into bowl and stir until just combined
  • Fold in berries
  • Bake 20-25 minutes

You've opened yourself up to a whole new world of muffin enjoyment! We really like strawberry muffins and banana muffins in our house. Haven't tried Raspberry and Banana but looks yum.

Wow...looks so pretty and delicious. I love the pink paper cup taht you used. I'm sure this cupcake is full of flavour. I love the banana flavour in cakes. Beautiful colour from the raspberries. Thanks for sharing

I make banana bread and muffins all the time but I never thought to put raspberries in them (usually the kids and husband want chocolate chips). I love raspberries...Thanks and great picture too!

Your muffin looks great. Kind of like a baked version of a raspberry-banana smoothie. Great idea!
