WHOLE-GRAIN BANANA YOGURT MUFFINS



Whole-Grain Banana Yogurt Muffins image

Whole-wheat flour gives these muffins a rich, nutty flavor that's extra satisfying on fall days. Even though this recipe uses all whole-grain flour, the muffins stay light and tender in texture and delicate in taste. Combining the dry ingredients with a large proportion of wet - bananas, yogurt, oil and honey - keeps these from being dry and heavy. Plus, the acidity of yogurt and honey help mellow out the tannic taste of whole wheat. Because these muffins are so tender, their flat tops crack a bit instead of doming. You can adorn them and add crunch by sprinkling with oats, seeds, chopped nuts, grated coconut or cacao nibs before baking.

Tips for Baking Multi-Grain Banana Muffins

  • Use ripe bananas: Overripe bananas are sweeter and have a more intense banana flavor, making them perfect for muffins.
  • Mash the bananas thoroughly: This will help to create a smooth batter and prevent the muffins from being lumpy.
  • Use a variety of grains: This will add flavor and texture to the muffins. Some good options include oats, wheat germ, and flaxseed.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the muffins tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Fill the muffin cups about 2/3 full: This will prevent the muffins from overflowing.
  • Bake the muffins at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes: Or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Conclusion

Multi-grain banana muffins are a delicious and healthy snack or breakfast option. They are easy to make and can be made with a variety of different grains. You can also mix in different ingredients, such as nuts, fruits, or chocolate chips, to create your own unique muffins. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy snack or breakfast, try making a batch of multi-grain banana muffins. You and your family will love them!
