| Chocolate Chip Delight - Blank Note Card |
But then I went and prrrrobaby messed up the healthtasticness of my week by using my leftover bananas to make Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins.I got the recipe here, but I'm re-typing it on my blog, so I can pin the sad photo I took of my muffins. I know it's not much too look at, but they're really tasty!
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour2/3 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup mashed ripe bananas (about 2 large)
1 large egg
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup milk
3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Preparation
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line twelve 1/3-cup muffin cups
with foil muffin liners. Mix flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in
large bowl. Mix mashed bananas, egg, melted butter and milk in medium
bowl. Stir banana mixture into dry ingredients just until blended (do
not overmix). Stir in chocolate chips.
Divide batter among prepared muffin cups, filling each
about 3/4 full. Bake muffins until tops are pale golden and tester
inserted into center comes out with some melted chocolate attached but
no crumbs, about 15 minutes. Transfer muffins to rack; cool.
Ingredient Notes:
1. I didn't have enough butter when I made these, so I chanced it with half and it worked out just fine.
2. I used Whole Wheat Flour and sometimes that can give a slightly unpleasant taste or texture to baked goods, but I didn't notice any at all. I think it's because of the bananas.
Cooking Time Note: The original recipe said 32 minutes, but one commenter had noted that was way too long. I put them in for 15 and that was smack on the dot, but my oven tends to bake extra quickly, so it may be more like 17-20 minutes.

My other big thing this week was getting art ready for the Art in the Barn show. It was just a little local show, but it was fun and having it a barn was a different experience. They also had performance art going on throughout the night
