Strawberry banana muffins

This was a spur-of-the-moment recipe - I had some browning bananas and some strawberries. I wasn't sure how this would work - so I made a few normal banana-nut muffins, then added the strawberry to the second half of the batter. Both worked great :)

Strawberry Banana Muffins

  • 1 1/3 flour, sifted
  • 2 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/3 c butter
  • 2/3 c sugar
  • 1/2 - 1 lemon of zest
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 smashed bananas
  • 1/4 c walnut or pecan pieces
  • ~6 strawberries, cut into 1/4"x1/4" cubes
  1. Preheat oven to 350
  2. Sift together flour, baking powder and salt.
  3. In another bowl, cream together the butter, sugar and lemon zest. Mix in the eggs and banana. Stir in the flour mixture a little at at time until combined. Fold in the nuts and strawberries. Pour into a lined muffin/cupcake tin.
  4. Bake for 22-25 minutes.
  5. Enjoy!
