Wheat Banana Muffins with honey Recipe:

2 cups (260 grams) whole wheat flour

1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

1/4 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 1/ 2 cups mashed banana (about 3 large ripe bananas

2 large eggs, lightly beaten

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup(If you don't want to add honey you could relace it with same quantity sugar i.e total 3/4 cup sugar)

1/2 cup (105 grams) sugar

1/3 cup (80 ml) milk

1/4 cup (60 ml) sunflower oil

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
or essence

Instructions:

Whole Wheat Banana Muffins: Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) and place the oven rack in the center of the oven. Line 16 muffin cups with paper liners or use non stick muffin baking tray.

In a large bowl combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon

In another large bowl combine the mashed bananas, lightly beaten eggs, honey or maple syrup, sugar, milk, oil, and vanilla extract. With a plastic spatula or wooden spoon, lightly fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients just until combined and the batter is thick and chunky. (The important thing is not to over mix the batter. You do not want it smooth. Over mixing the batter will yield tough, rubbery muffins.) Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tins and bake about 18 - 22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Place on a wire rack to cool for five minutes and then remove muffins from pan.
