So, what yummy thing did I bake at the manor this weekend? These yumalicious muffins. The banana makes them super moist, and adds a delightfully subtle background flavor. Okay. I admit it. I ate three.
1 stick butter
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
2 bananas, mashed
1/2 cup milk
2 cups flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp cinnamon
2 cups fresh (I used) or frozen blueberries
Cream butter and sugar, add eggs, mix in bananas and milk. In separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder and cinnamon. Add moist to dry ingredients and mix only until batter is moist. (Not too much or muffins will be rubbery.) Carefully stir in the whole blueberries. Spoon into greased muffin tin and bake 25 minutes at 350.
yummy,
ReplyDeleteI ate this at times,
my older son bakes it because he enjoys doing it.
OMG, Willow! These sound just wonderful! How will I ever lose any weight?
ReplyDeletesounds absolutely delicious--I will have to make these next saturday--can't wait
ReplyDeleteWell aren't you the little baker! Sounds great. You know me... I do the banana walnut bread with tons of chocolate chips and butterscotch chips. Heat up a slice and serve it with vanilla ice cream?!?!?!?!!?

Looks delicious
ReplyDeleteThese sound delish. Last year I made some muffins your sister Betsy gave the recipe to on her blog. You gals are pretty good in the kitchen...thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteC.M. let me know how they turn out! Hope you enjoy them!
ReplyDeleteHey, we've had banana muffins here too, but alas no blueberries! These sound very good.
ReplyDeleteYou know that sounds like a good combination. I think I'll be trying that recipe. Thanks and thanks for visiting my crazy blog.
ReplyDeleteNow that sounds perfectly delicious. I think I know what's for breakfast tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteOhhhhhhhh, I love your new look too!! Your header is sooooo great, I will die for it!! I have told you before, but Life at Willow Manor = a real pearl!!
ReplyDeleteThank you for nice comments on my blog, I'm just just love them!!
My blog break.... hmmm & yes I know ;)
I hope you are my guest in my summer competition!!

I'm so happy you ate 3. I always feel I should only have a taste; feel guilty if I have one, which never seems to satisfy.
ReplyDeleteOh, damn! I'm drinking a big glass of milk, looking at your muffin photo with envy. Ooops....just licked the laptop screen!!
ReplyDeleteWillow. What is a 'stick of butter'? 250 gms maybe?
ReplyDeleteCan't get blueberries here in France, but I can substitute. Cro.
They look so good!
ReplyDeleteDear Willow, They do indeed look positively delicious. Sadly, as my kitchen skills are non existent, I shall pass on them!
ReplyDeleteAhhh I want to try almost all of the recipes you post. Now I just need my own kitchen :)I'm definitely bookmarking this one.
ReplyDeletemmmm... i did mixed berry pancakes yesterday (blend fresh berries: strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, raspberries) mix into pancake batter and enjoy! Yummy fruits of summer, yum, yum, yum, yum :)
ReplyDeleteThat is the most enticing picture I've seen in a long time: make me break my diet, why don't you!
ReplyDeleteWillow my friend, is this fair? Is this nice Trying to put sixty pound on me when I have just lost thirty, yes thirty pounds in water! Like carrying a toddler around with me day and night. No wonder my heart could not cope and I could not breath. So I will be standing firm and not baking your scrummy, yummy, too delicious muffins . . . well at least till our blueberry season.
ReplyDeleteOh, yes, OOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHH YEEEEESSSSSS! I love me blueberry banana muffins. Many thanks. And I love your new header. It's fantastic.
ReplyDeleteGreetings from London.
Thank you - I will do them after our blueberries in the forests are ripe :))
ReplyDeleteHave a good week!
I made bran muffins with blueberries and they were really good. I think that now I will have to try these ones too.
ReplyDeleteThey do look so good. I was going to make blueberry cobbler this weekend and so maybe I will also have to make these too. Blueberries are so good.
Although the Blackberry Cobbler I made was awfully good too. Dang it, I just enjoy all the berries. Berries are the best.
God bless.
Yummmy looking,
ReplyDeleteI would love to sit with you and have one with a cup of tea and discuss ole movies..yvonne
Oh my this looked wonderful. Yes, the recipe sounded good,but the picture is what made my mouth water!
ReplyDeleteThey look yummeacious! :-)
ReplyDeleteI'd love to trade a cup of my homemade cappuccino with one of those beauties of yours!
Mmm good recipe. Cinnamon lowers blood sugar so says Dr. Oz. Bananas have potassium. Love yogurt and muffins in the a.m. Has anyone heard of Kefir yogurt? I cannot find in regular grocery stores. Jane Jones
ReplyDeleteCro: 1 stick of butter = 113.5 gr or 1/4 pound or 4 ounce or 1/2 cup
ReplyDeleteMerci.
ReplyDeleteOooh, they sound good! Hey--they're good for you. Bananas have all that potassium, and blueberries--well, they're just chock full of all kinds of good things, so have another, (if there are any left.)
ReplyDeleteactually I need to GAIN weight, just 105, should be 110 at least, so I may make these yummies and eat four. LOL. I just dont know what I did with Mom's muffin tin.
ReplyDeleteSuki, how I wish I had your problem. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteI will be trying these ~ my kids love banana bread and they love blueberry muffins; I've never combined the two. These should be a hit! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDelete:-)
I'm not reading any recipes involving fat and sugar at the moment - but the picture looked lovely and I can almost smell them from here
ReplyDeleteyum - I love making muffins - my friend has a B & B in Maine - she makes a Cranberry White chocolate chip muffin that is amazing! Jennifer come visit some time jennsthreegraces
ReplyDeleteOk. I'm going to try this right now....
ReplyDeleteBlueberries and bananas...what a great combo. Not one I've seen before.
ReplyDeleteI like blueberry anything. The hydrangea in the sidebar is like mine, almost.
ReplyDeleteDid you see Bonnie and Milbert?
On Abe Lincoln Blogs.
You torture...however, I had blueberry pancakes for breaky... touche'!
ReplyDeleteYumalicious indeedy. Great-sounding combo of fruit!
ReplyDeleteYum! Yummy photo also!
ReplyDeleteI want one right now with my coffee. Three? Only three?
ReplyDeleteCatherine
oh, how scrumptiously delicious!!! their fragrance flows off the screen!!! so yummmmmmy, lady willow!! and served with an ice cold orange juice, freshly squeezed, of course!! be still my heart!!!
ReplyDeletewhere were you when i was looking for breakfast this moning willow...smiles.
ReplyDeleteThis is definitely doable here in our little hippie house. Will try them soon. We have been making smoothies with protein powder and using fresh bananas and strawberries.
ReplyDeleteOnly three, Willow?! Better get another baking tray ready!
ReplyDeleteOkay after seeing those I might have to step in to the kitchen. Have spent years uncomfortable around kitchen equipment... If I conquer it--- I will eat ten!!!
ReplyDeleteOh yum! Forget the diet, I'll be fat and happy!
ReplyDeleteOnly 3! They look amazing. Perhaps one day someone will invent aroma-vision..
ReplyDeleteCJ xx
Any recipe that starts with, "one stick butter" is okay with me. Yuuuuuu--uum
ReplyDeleteYour blog is looking fabulous Willow. I wish you had a search function. I want to look up some of your past posts!
ReplyDeleteAlmost identical to the recipe I baked last week here in New Zealand using frozen blueberries - yes they are delicious and, as you said the banana makes them so moist.
ReplyDeleteLove your site
I made them yesterday and they're fantastic--thank you! I like that the recipe made a full 15 regular-sized muffins, too.
ReplyDeleteHausfrau, glad to hear you enjoyed them!!
ReplyDeleteLeslie, yes, I do have a search window at the top left of my blog! Hope you found what you were looking for!
Made these muffins. Mine sure didn't look pretty & high like yours. They were flat but tasted wonderful!! Thank you.
ReplyDeleteThose look so good Willow, but blueberries were $9.50 for a tiny 100gm. punnet yesterday @ the Market. There's a pawn shop next door to the Fruit & Veg. shop, now I know why!!
ReplyDeleteMillie ^_^
Have saved this delicious looking recipe. Thanks for translating the american "stick" of butter for me. I will try this with some blackcurrants I have in my freezer from last summer. It's midwinter here in New Zealand.
