Brown Butter Banana Muffins

2:35 PM

You've got to give these tasty little treats a try!  I bought a ton of bananas the other day and couldn't think of enough ways to use them before they spoiled.  So I found a muffin recipe, made a few tweaks, and here's the result!

What You'll Need:
- 6 Tbs unsalted butter
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- dash of salt
- 3/4 tsp ground cinnamon
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup plain yogurt
- 2 large bananas, mashed

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees and prepare a cupcake pan with liners or spray.  Melt butter in a sauce pan over medium heat.  Cook until the butter begins to brown and smell like caramel.  Remove from heat and let cool slightly.  In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, brown sugar, baking soda, salt and cinnamon.  In a separate bowl, whisk eggs, vanilla extract and yogurt.  Mix in mashed bananas.  In a very slowly stream, pour the melted butter into the egg mixture to temper it so the eggs don't curdle.  Pour mixture into dry ingredients, mix well but do not over mix, or else your muffins will be dense.  Spoon mixture into prepared cupcake pan, filling cups 3/4 full.  Bake for 15-20 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.

*You can add so many things to these muffins!  Blueberries, strawberries, nuts, Nutella, peanut butter or simply enjoy them plain!  If you add peanut butter or Nutella, just fill your cups, take about 1/4 teaspoon of Nutella, dollop into the center of the muffin mixture and cover with mixture. Follow the same baking procedures.  Banana Nutella Muffins pictured below.

Enjoy!
