Peanut butter Banana Muffins

I love Epicure delivery days!! Especially when there is a new toy in the box for me!! Today I received my new silicone perfect portion muffin tray and of course had to take it for a test bake!! 

  
I wanted to use up some spotty bananas but also wanted a bit of nutrition! I came up with these delicious little numbers packed with extra goodness thanks to a couple of scoops of Epicure’s enhanced nutrition Cocoa crunch sprinkles! 

Ingredients 

  

  • 3 ripe bananas 
  • 1 cup white flour
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • Pinch salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1/4 cup peanut butter
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla 
  • 2 tablespoons Epicure Cocoa crunch enhanced nutrition sprinkles 
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips (optional) 

Method 

Preheat oven to 375 degrees 

In a large mixing bowl smash the bananas.  

 
Add butter, peanut butter, vanilla, eggs, and sugar. Combine well.  

 
In a separate bowl whisk together flours, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. 

Add dry ingredients to wet mixture and fold together until just combined.  

   
Once combined gently fold in Cocoa crunch sprinkles and chocolate chips if desired.  

 

Divide evenly in greased muffin tray and bake for 20 minutes until toothpick inserted cones out clean.  

 
  
Allow to cool on rack and enjoy!
