Banana Nut muffins

These are Deird’s favourite muffin on here. They’re best made with really ripe bananas- ripe to the point of heading for the bin. If you have old bananas like that, make these, don’t bin the bananas!

1 cup all-purpose flour
1  teaspoons baking soda
big pinch of salt
2 overripe bananas
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup veg oil
1 egg

1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
a pinch of nutmeg
1/4 cup pecans, chopped (can replace with choc chips if you’re avoiding nuts)

Preheat oven to 200C.

Mash the 2 bananas with a fork. Add the mashed bananas with the other ingredients in to a bowl and mix together. (Add the nuts last). Put into muffin papers- filling nearly to the top of the paper, and sprinkle a little sugar on the top.They should rise well during cooking, so that they are doubled in hight, with a nice dome-top to them.

Should make about 6 or 7 muffins.
