For Kenya
Banana Bread Muffins
From Recipes for a Small Planet
1/4 cup butter
2/3 cup honey
3 eggs
1 cup mashed banana pulp
1/3 cup water and 1/4 cup milk powder OR 1/2 cup milk or soy milk
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp salt
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
2 cups whole wheat flour
walnut pieces
Cream together butter and honey with an electric mixer until light. Beat in the eggs, banana pulp, water/milk, and vanilla. Stir together dry ingredients and stir them into the wet mixture with as few strokes as possible. Stir in 1 to 2 cups walnut pieces. Turn the batter into an oiled loaf pan; bake at 325 for about an hour, until well browned and a tester comes out clean. OR scoop about 1/3 cup batter into a cupcake-lined muffin pan. Bake at 325 for about 40 minutes. Makes about 2 dozen muffins. Awesome when topped with Nutella.

I have some bananas that need dealing with. Perhaps I shall try this. Thanks for the recipe!
I was the lucky birthday recipient of two of these bad boys if I am not mistaken? Mmmm... Deeelish! I have such a soft spot in my heart for Nutella icing!!Hugs to Velma
i tried Nutella for the first time about two weeks ago...as like Velma with the peanut sauce, i ate it with a spoon. Hmm, using it as an icing, now that's a good idea!

Thank you for posting this recipe. It's one of my favorites and I no longer have the cook book "Recipes for a Small Planet". I also love the Thanksgiving cranberry nut loaf. Can you post that one too?
Happy Thanksgiving from Milwaukee!
