If you follow my blog on daily bases you know I didn’t like Banana bread or banana “something” until I’ve tried banana muffins! The result was so Yummy that I decide to repeat that recipe and take it to the next level – for me, it’s a bit healthier version :). I loved the aftertaste of honey! Realy! 
I can’t believe I wasn’t brave enough to taste them all these 34 years! The same with the black tea with milk! I thought never, ever! But then I receive a gift (Yorkshire tea) from Dimi and had to taste it! I shoot my first attempt and meant to send it to the friend, but I didn’t because it looked as if I was disgusted! Then after asking Dimi the proportions between tea/water/milk had to make it again and now I’m drinking “Yorkshire proper brew” almost every day!
Sorry, memories! Now, my a bit healthier version of banana muffins.
Banana and Honey muffins
This recipe will need two overripe bananas
Ingredients
- 1/3 cup raw honey
- 1/3 cup sunflower oil
- 2 eggs
- 2 overripe bananas
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 2/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Directions
- Preheat an oven to 190°C. Line a muffin pan with a muffin liner.
- In a medium bowl, combine the honey, oil, eggs, bananas, and vanilla, blend with hand blender until combined.
- Add in flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon and blend together until combined.
- Divide the batter evenly among a lined muffin tin, filling halfway.
- Bake 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the muffin comes out clean. Immediately transfer to a cooling rack. Enjoy warm or completely cooled.

Those would go very well with ‘a proper brew’, of course. Maybe I’ll make sometime and try the combination. Meanwhile, I have a supply of ‘rich tea’ biscuits hacibg bought some to make your ‘anthill cake.’ Managed to resist the ‘digestive biscuits’ in shop. Less sugar in Rich Tea! Anyway, glad the proper brew caught you. Dimi

It’s great to try things new that you weren’t willing to before. I think our taste buds change as we grow older also

Oh Yes! Chocolate goes very well with banana! But unfortunately I can’t buy chocolate chips here (countryside of Latvia)!

Muffins look yummy!! I am the opposite with tea. For years I had milk tea and two sugars! But for many more years, I have just black tea and no sugar!. Sometimes I add lemon which is refreshing. I also enjoy herbal infusions, green and also white tea. I guess I just like tea!

Yes, chocolate chip isn’t the thing that is easy to get in Latvia! Maybe bigger shops have them, but not here…
