BONNIE'S BANANA AND PEAR MUFFINS image

Now before you think that pear baby food is a typo, think again! I scooped up this little trick from a bakery caterer, and pear baby food makes a delicious cake or muffins. Try it and see. The muffins are light with just a hint of banana flavor. We also enjoy them frosted with butter cream frosting, or you can eat them plain. I bet you can't eat just one. Enjoy!

Number Of Ingredients 11

WET INGREDIENTS
8 oz pear baby food
1 very ripe banana, mashed with fork
1 egg, slightly beaten
1/3 cup butter, melted
DRY INGREDIENTS
1 1/2 cups organic flour
3/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray an extra large baking tin with kitchen spray. One that bakes 6 large muffins.
  • Assemble and measure all your ingredients to make the recipe before you begin.
  • With a hand mixer, mix all your Wet Ingredients in the order given, for 1 minute.
  • Then add the Dry Ingredients, and mix until combined. Spoon the thick batter into the tins. They will be about 3/4 full, and bake 20 to 30 minutes, depending on your oven. (it takes about 25 minutes in my oven.) Toothpick test centers to make sure they are done.
  • Cool the muffins on a rack. You may frost the muffins or eat them plain. Nuts are optional. We prefer pecans.
  • Taste one!
