Description

These muffins were easy to make. It also has only one kind of "special" flour. We tasted one and it was rather good!

Ingredients

3 bananas
2 eggs
1⁄2craw sugar (used granulated)
1⁄2corganic peanut butter
1 3⁄4cbrown rice flour
2tbaking powder
1tbaking soda
1⁄4cvegetable oil
1⁄2cbuttermilk (sour milk)
1⁄2cmini-chocolate chips

Instructions

Mash Bananas and put into a medium size bowl. Add eggs, sugar, and peanut butter (I used Smuckers Organic chunky) and beat with electric mixer until combined. Add remaining ingredients. Mix well.

Pre-heat oven to 350 F. Recipe says to put paper liners in muffin tins and fill to top. I sprayed with non-stick spray and filled the mini-muffin pans. Made 3 dozen mini-muffins. Bake for 12 to 13 miutes (until firm to touch) Cool and serve.

Notes

Note: If dairy products are a problem, substitute 1/2 cup rice milk mixed with 1 teaspoon lemon juice and use dairy-free chocolate chips.

I made a few changes from original due to what was on-hand. Recipe = white rice flour (used brown);Recipe = raw sugar (used granulated); Recipe = 1/3 cup butter or shortening (melted) (I used 1/4 cup vegetable oil)

Anyone ever make muffins using those muffin tops pans? I want to get one, but DH says they can't possibly make a soft muffin top.

No soft muffin top. It's the crunchy part of the muffin. Yum-o. Why else would they make a pan that specifically only makes the 'top' if that wasn't the part everyone really wants and suffers thru the soft 'stem' part to get to?

LOL I can't take any credit for splicing all the segments together...that was the work of someone with WAYYY TOO MUCH free time on their hands.... I can only be credited with doing a quick search on youtube followed by a quick copy and paste.

I have the muffin top pan and make them.  It takes 2 or 3 times the muffin tops as muffins. 6 muffins, probably 12-18 muffin tops depending on size of muffin top you buy.

Same as muffins, just not much middle.

We have made gluten-free bread and it has been a big hit.  We have even used it in special little baking dishes for our overnight french toast and the people needing the special treatment seem very pleased.

My pleasure. It is my hope that B & Bs will stock the flours necessary for gluten-free. I keep mine in the bread drawer of my 1950s kitchen sink unit with no problems. You do not need a lot on hand. It really is not a big deal to make that loaf of bread or special batch of muffins - the bread was raising while I did the muffins (while the oven was pre-heating). I do not think it took an hour all together. The only problem with gluten-free is that gluten is found in things one would never think of.
