Strawberry-Banana Muffins

It seems that I can never eat an entire bunch of bananas before half of them turn brown. Fortunately, that just gives me an excuse to make lots of banana bread! I decided to switch it up this time and make these strawberry-banana muffins I found on Joy of Baking. They were quite tasty and husband and co-worker approved! 

Strawberry-Banana Muffins
Makes 12 Muffins

Ingredients

1 stick of melted butter

2 eggs

1 tsp vanilla extract

2 very ripe bananas, mashed

1 cup strawberries, quartered

2 1/4 cups flour

1/2 cup brown sugar

1 1/2 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp baking soda

2 tsp cinnamon

1/2 tsp nutmeg

1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease a muffin tin.

Mix butter, eggs, vanilla, and bananas in a large mixing bowl. Add sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Mix until combined.

In a smaller bowl, measure out the flour. Add the strawberries and stir until the strawberries are coated in flour. Combine flour and strawberries with the batter. Mix just until the flour is absorbed into the batter. 

Divide evenly between greased muffin tins and bake 15-20 minutes. Mine were perfect after 20 minutes but my oven does sometimes seem to take longer than normal so I would check them around 15 minutes.

Enjoy warm with butter and a glass of milk!
