Equipment

  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Convection oven
  • Weighing Scale for measuring ingredients
  • Bowls for mixing the batter

Ingredients

  • 175 grams whole wheat flour
  • 275 grams banana 2 Philippines banana weighed with skin
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • 90 grams jaggery powder ½ cup approximately
  • 50 ml coconut oil/any vegetable oil ¼ cup, approximately
  • 50 grams chopped walnuts ½ cup approximately
  • 2 tablespoon coffee mixed in ½ cup water

Instructions

  • Preheat the Oven to 160C . Line a 6-hole muffin pan with liners.
  • In a bowl, take flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon powder powder. Whisk this all together.
  • Add broken walnuts to this flour mix and whisk it together.

Wet Ingredients

  • In another wide bowl, take jaggery powder and bananas. Mash it well to form a liquid.
  • Add cinnamon powder and coffee mixed water to this wet ingredients, whisk well to form a uniform liquid.

Mix wet ingredients and dry ingredients

  • Now add ½ cup of flour mix at a time, in to the wet ingredients and mix using a whisk to form a uniform batter
  • Fill the muffin pan with batter in each hole. I used a greased ½ measure cup, so it was easy to pour the batter.

Let's Bake Muffins

  • Bake the muffins in the preheated oven for 22-25 minutes or until a skewer inserted in the middle comes out clean.
  • Oven temperature differs from oven to oven, so bake accordingly
  • Once the muffins are done, remove it from the oven, let it sit in the pan for 2 minutes, the remove the muffins onto a wire rack.

Store & Serve

  • Let it cool completely. The muffins can remain on the kitchen counter for a day. I prefer to refrigerate in an air-tight box.
  • If serving from the refrigerator, reheat the muffins for a 10-20 seconds and serve the muffins warm.

Notes

  • Baking temperature varies from oven to oven, so keep an eye on the bake after 15 minutes. 
  • I have used jaggery in the recipe, you can replace it with brown sugar or just plain white sugar. 
  • I baked  a few muffins without walnut toppings, as my younger prefers less things on his muffin. 
  • If you prefer the classic dense banana muffins, then skip the baking soda and make baking powder ¾ teaspoon , you will get classic dense banana muffins.
