To Be Exact

Between, Adam, our downstairs neighbor, and I, those muffins from yesterday are almost completely gone! This afternoon, I tweaked the recipe just slightly and made another batch. If you have 20 minutes to burn and some skanky bananas to get rid of, here's what I did.

Ingredients
2 large eggs
3 overripe bananas
1/2 cup kefir yogurt* **
1/4 olive oil
1/2 cup lightly packed brown sugar
2 cups whole wheat flour
1 tbsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp sea salt
1 cup pumpkin seeds

Method
Preheat oven to 325 F.
Mix the wet ingredients and sugar.
Add dry ingredients.
Put into oiled muffin tin or line with papers.
Bake for 30 minutes.

Makes 12 biggie muffins!

* Kefir yogurt is a kind of fermented milk product, much like traditional yogurt, but it is made with kefir bacteria grains, rather than other bacterias.

** You can use regular yogurt (you might want to thin it out slightly with a bit of milk or water) or buttermilk in place of the kefir yogurt. Or, you can just use milk or water, but you might have to play with the dry ingredients just slightly if you use pure liquid).

i got lots of extra bananes kicking around too, and they are all f***ing skanks! i just yelled at them this morning and told them they were a bunch of little scrubbers, and if they didn't smarten up I'd bake them into muffins. Well, guess what? It's going to happen this afternoon! I too like to run my oven in summer.
