I love making new dishes.
I have my specialty dishes that I make all the time, Baked Macaroni
and Cheese, homemade Pizza, and Risotto.
But I love throwing in new and fun recipes to our weekly menu. I feel the same way with making desserts and
baked goods. I love making my favorite
items, such as cupcakes and cake lollipops; but I also love creating new treats
that I’ve never made before.
One day I wanted to make muffins – something I love to make
and make all the time. But I wanted to
make them a little bit different.
Instead of making just a basic blueberry muffin, or banana muffin, I
made a Banana Blueberry Muffin. I found
a great recipe and adapted it on the whim.
In just one try, they came out moist, flavorful, and incredibly
light.
I served these to my parents and they loved them! And to tell you the truth, this is now one of
my favorite muffin recipes. I can’t wait
to try new flavor combinations!
Enjoy!

Makes: About 20
Muffins
2 cups Whole Wheat Flour
1 cup All Purpose Flour
1 teaspoon Baking Soda
½ teaspoon Salt
1 teaspoon Cinnamon
1 ½ cups Sugar
2 Large Bananas, Ripe and Mashed
½ cup Olive Oil
3 Eggs
2 cups Fresh Blueberries
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 1-2 muffin pans with baking liners. Set aside until needed.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flours, baking soda,
salt, and cinnamon. Set aside.
In a large bowl, stir together the sugar and mashed bananas. Add the oil and eggs, and whisk to combine. Slowly incorporate the flour and mix until
just incorporated. Carefully fold in the
fresh blueberries.
Using an ice cream scoop, divide the batter among the
prepared baking liners. Bake the muffins
until they turn a light golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center
of a few muffins come out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool slightly, or completely depending
on your preference, and then serve.
These last up to 5 days in a sealed container.
