These deliciously moreish sourdough banana bread muffins are ideal for lunchboxes or snacking on at home! They are my favourite way to use up leftover bananas or grab a sweet treat with my tea.
Ingredients
4 Bananas
2tbsp Honey
1cup Walnuts
100grams Ripe Sourdough Starter
100grams Dark Brown Sugar
2 Medium Eggs
1/2cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 3/4cups Flour
1tsp Cinnamon
1/4tsp Nutmeg
1/2tsp Salt
1tsp Baking Soda
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 170°C (fan).
2
Grease your muffin tray or pop in some muffin cases, then set the tray aside.
3
In a large bowl, roughly mash the bananas (don’t go too fancy; we want some lumps for texture). Add the sourdough starter and whisk together using an electric whisk until well combined.
4
Crack in the eggs, one at a time, then add the sugar, honey, and olive oil. Keep whisking until it’s smoother than your best chat-up line.
5
In a separate bowl, mix all your dry ingredients. Then, gently fold them into the banana mixture. Be delicate now—like you’re folding your best shirt.
6
Stir in the chopped walnuts.
7
Pour the batter into the muffin cases and bake for 20-25 minutes. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the centre of a muffin; if it comes out clean, you’re good to go!
