Banana nut muffins are always popular with kids and are a great breakfast or snack item. They are easy to make and are extra flavorful if you use overripe bananas in your batter.

Ingredients

1 1/2 cup all purpose flour
1/2 cup wheat flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2/3 cup pecans, coarsely chopped
1 large egg, or 2 egg whites
3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
1 1/2 cup bananas, mashed
6 tablespoons light vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a standard 12 muffin pan or line with paper cups.
Whisk together the flour, wheat flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Stir in the chopped pecans.
Whisk together in a separate bowl, the egg, brown sugar, bananas, vegetable oil, and vanilla.
Add the flour mixture to the banana mixture and mix with a few light strokes just until the dry ingredients are moistened. Do not overmix; the batter should not be smooth.
Divide the batter among the muffin cups. Bake until a toothpick inserted in 1 or 2 of the muffins comes out clean, about 18 minutes.
Let cool for 2 to 3 minutes before removing from the pan. If not serving hot, let cool on a rack.
