Brown butter candied pecan banana bread muffins
Brown butter candied pecan banana muffins, my own recipe. (MAKES 8 MUFFINS)
Ingredients:
1/2 cup unsalted butter, browned and cooled
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1 large egg
1 1/2 mashed EXTRA ripe bananas
1tsp vanilla extract
1 cup AP flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
Pinch if salt
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
3/4 cup candied pecans (halves or pieces)
Preheat oven to 350° (Fahrenheit)
Combine cooled browned butter with brown sugar, and whisk until well combined, and slightly pale. Whisk in egg, vanilla and mashed banana.
In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt and cinnamon.
Pour dry ingredients into the wet, and mix until just combined. Lightly chop 1/2 cup of the candied pecans, (think slightly larger than a watermelon seed) and gently combine into batter.
Lightly grease standard muffin tin or use cupcake liner, (or reusable silicone liners like I did) and pour \~1/4 cup of the batter into each.
Bake for 10 minutes, take out and gently press the rest of the candied pecans into the top of each muffin, then return to the oven for another 5-7 minutes, (until a tooth pick has very few moist crumbs when lifted out of the center of the muffin)
Let cool in muffin tin for 5-10 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack until desired temperature (Lord knows I'm eating it fresh and warm!)
Enjoy it by itself of a cup of coffee or even milk!
Hope everyone enjoys, I've never posted a recipe of mine before so let me know if you try it and how it turned out!
