My baby boy just turned 1 so I wanted to create something special for him with minimal sugar. Here is my recipe for Banana Bread Muffins, perfect for babies and toddlers. I also couldn't resist one with a nice cup of tea which is why you see only 5 muffins here, instead of 6! 

As always, use up those left over-ripe bananas in your fruit bowl. No more excuses to ever throw those out again. 

Makes 6 muffins.

➡️ Ingredients: 

• 2 over-ripe bananas (mashed)
• 55g unsalted butter, softened (room temperature)
• 50g apple puree
• 50g caster sugar
• 1 free range egg
• 125g plain flour, sifted
• 1tbs of vanilla extract
• 1/2 tsp of cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp of bi-carbonate soda
• 1 tsp baking powder 

➡️ Method: 

1. Preheat oven to 170 degrees (fan forced)
2. Line your cupcake tin with cupcake/muffin paper liners 
3. Mash your over ripe bananas with a fork or potato masher
4. Cream your butter and sugar until light and fluffy
5. Then add all remaining ingredients, including your bananas
6. Mix until combined and spoon 2 tbs into each cupcake liner 
7. Bake for 15 mins or until brown and cooked through
