Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter (melted and slightly cooled)
2 eggs (room temperature)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup carrots (finely shredded (~2 medium))
3/4 cup mashed bananas (~2 large)
1/2 cup pecan chips

Steps:

  • Pre-heat oven to 350°F. Line approximately 16 muffin tins.
  • In a large mixing bowl, stir together dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Set aside.
  • In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter (slightly cooled), eggs, and vanilla. Stir the wet ingredients into dry ingredients until just incorporated. The batter will seem extra thick at this point but don't worry, that's normal! Gently stir in the shredded carrot and mashed banana until fully combined, but don't overmix.
  • Scoop batter into muffin tins, approximately 2/3rds full. Top each muffin with approximately 1 1/2 teaspoons pecan chips, or as desired. Bake the muffins for 15-20 minutes until muffins bounce back when lightly touched and/or a toothpick comes out clean.
  • Let the muffins cool in the pan for 2-3 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Serve once the muffins are cool enough to handle, yet still warm. Let any leftovers cool completely and store in an airtight container at room temperature for 1-2 days, or in the fridge.

NIF'S JUMBO BANANA CARROT MUFFINS

My boys go back to school tomorrow and I wanted to be prepared by having some food that they can grab on their way out. This is what I ended up with and they are moist and really good! My boys are teens so I made this recipe for the great big muffins, but adjust the time and amounts and you can make smaller ones. Also, you can exclude the raisins and replace them with nuts if you prefer. Enjoy!

Yield 16 large muffins

Number Of Ingredients 11

3/4 cup vegetable oil
1 1/2 cups sugar
6 eggs
6 medium ripe bananas, mashed
1 teaspoon vanilla

2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 1/2 cups carrots, grated

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees and spray a non-stick muffin tin OR I highly recommend using the silicone version of the pan for no spraying or sticking.
  • In a large bowl (I used my Cuisinart stand mixer with the paddle attachment), mix the oil, sugar and eggs completely. Add the mashed bananas and vanilla and mix again until incorporated.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, baking soda and salt. Add to the creamed mixture in 2 batches, stirring after each addition.
  • Stir in carrots and raisins.
  • Scoop 1/2 cup of batter into each muffin mold. Bake for 25 - 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  • Remove from oven and place on cooling rack. Cool for at least 10 minutes and then remove from pan.

Tips for Making Jumbo Banana Carrot Muffins

- For the best flavor and texture, use ripe bananas. The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful the muffins will be. - Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will result in tough, dense muffins. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined. - Fill the muffin cups almost to the top. This will help the muffins rise evenly and prevent them from becoming dry. - Bake the muffins at a high temperature for the first few minutes, then reduce the temperature to finish baking. This will help the muffins rise quickly and then finish baking evenly. - Let the muffins cool completely before frosting or serving. This will help the frosting set properly and prevent the muffins from becoming soggy.

Conclusion

Jumbo banana carrot muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. They are also a great way to use up ripe bananas. With their moist and flavorful texture, these muffins are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
