Mini Banana Orange Muffins

The Husband Person had a meeting at his school today and we had a guest over so I decided to make a quick batch of these up to have with coffee. As well as to drop off  a batch to my husband so he had a little something for his guest during their meeting.

Now these little 2 bite sweeties are packed with flavor and they are very quick to make. So don't waste those bananas! You can use any size muffin tin, or a loaf pan if you're a traditionalist, just keep a toothpick ready to test to see if they are done.

Ingredients:
2 cups unbleached flour
1 cup sugar
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
2 eggs lightly beaten
1 stick unsalted butter melted and cooled
3-4 very ripe bananas mashed well
1 tsp almond extract
zest of 1 whole orange (mixed in with wet ingredients)
juice of 1/2 the zested orange

Preheat oven to 350 degrees, grease a mini muffin tin. In one bowl combine all the dry ingredients and in another combine all the wet including the orange zest. Fold wet ingredients into the dry and be careful NOT to over mix!

 With a mini ice cream/melon scooper scoop batter and place in each mold. Bake for 8 mins on the middle rack.

 

Store in a airtight container for up to one week, if they last that long!

Enjoy!
