strawberry banana muffin

had some leftover's strawberry from Cameron Highlands....turned it into this smashing muffins!!! got the recipe from Joy of Baking....the texture is lovely....a credit to Stephanie Jaworski for this recipe...!!!

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
3/4 cup light brown sugar
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 large ripe bananas, mashed (about 1 cup)
1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries or strawberries (cut into small pieces)
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (177 degrees C). Line the muffin pan with paper liners

In a small saucepan melt the butter. Set aside.

In a medium sized bowl whisk together the brown sugar, eggs, vanilla extract and mashed banana. Add the melted butter to the brown sugar mixture and stir to combine.

In another large bowl combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Gently fold in the berries, making sure they are coated with flour. This helps to prevent the berries from sinking during baking.

Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir only until the ingredients are just combined. Do not over mix the batter or tough muffins will result.

Fill each muffin cup about two thirds full of batter, using two spoons or an ice cream scoop.

Place in the oven and bake until a tester inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.

1 1/2 tsp castor sugar

1 tsp baking powder*

120 g flour*(*mix together and sifted)

80 g tuna in oil

50 ml fresh milk

50 g mozarella cheese

1 clove garlic, chopped

pinch of salt

• whisk the egg, sugar, garlic and salt


• add in the tuna and mix well


• add in the flour mixture alternating with milk
