Banana nut muffins


This is a recipe that I like making mostly for breakfast. My husband loooves muffins, especially when they are the banana nut kind. I like them because they're easy and it doesn't take much to make them. 
This is a recipe that I adapted from the www.allrecipes.com but gave it my special little something. I like moist cakes, moist muffins, moist everything and very tasteful.

Banana Nut Muffins
Makes 12 muffins
Ingredients:
  • 1+1/2 cups of flour
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/3 cup of butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 3 or 4 ripe bananas, smashed
  • 1/2 or 1 cup of chopped walnuts/pecans
  • 2 or 3 tablespoons of milk.
Preheat oven to 350F/175C. Mix flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt.
In a separate bowl, with a wooden spoon, mix butter, sugar, egg and vanilla. Add smashed bananas.
Add the flour mixture to the liquid one, mix until incorporated. Add milk until it becomes a little more watery. This depends on how moist you want them to be. Fold in the chopped nuts.

Pour mixture into a prepared muffin tin. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick stuck in the middle comes out mostly clean.
