Blueberry Banana Muffins
slightly adapted from Warm Vanilla Sugar

Makes 12 muffins

Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups whole white wheat flour (or all purpose)
3/4 cup sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 large egg
1 1/2 cups mashed banana (3 or 4 large bananas)
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly
3/4 cup blueberries

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

Line a 12-cup muffin pan with baking cups (I spray my paper cups with nonstick spray so the paper will come off easier when eating.)

Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a small bowl. Combine the egg, mashed banana, and melted butter in a large bowl and stir until thoroughly blended. Add the flour mixture to the banana mixture and stir until just moist. Gently fold in the blueberries. If you don’t want blue muffins, use fresh blueberries, or coat frozen blueberries with flour before adding them to your muffin batter. Divide batter evenly among 12 muffin cups, filling each 2/3 full. I also added a couple of frozen blueberries to the tops of each muffin before baking them.

Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the tops of the muffins spring back when lightly touched and a toothpick comes out clean when inserted into the center of one muffin.

Remove muffins from pan immediately and place on a wire rack to cool.
