Pam's Prime Banana MuffinsIngredients (use vegan versions): 1 3/4 cups flour (whole wheat,oatmeal,mix,your fav.We even use bulk pancake and waffle mix.Its our fav.,but not.)
2 1/2 tsp.baking powder (If using pancake mix,no need for this)
1/2 teaspoon sea salt (or not)
1 dash cinnamon
2/3 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon banana extract
1/3 cup applesauce
1 egg equivelent
4 seriously ripe bananas
1 good handful of carob chips (or more)
nuts of your choice (optional)
Directions:Mix dry ingredients in a large bowl. In another bowl, mix wet ingredients (including bananas). Combine wet and dry ingredients. Add carob chips and whatever else you want. Pour into greased (we use Pam) muffin tins. Fill them to the top. These will be fairly large. Bake them about 20 minutes or until they look done. We knew that these were okay when our friend Prime ate about 12 of the 2 dozen we made one evening.
Serves: 12
Preparation time: 30 min.
these were great! i chopped up some dates and threw them in instead of carob chips, they were hearty and suprisingly moist, i also just threw in an extra bannana for the egg substitute, and maple syrup instead of vegan sugar. yummy!!

This is one of my favorite recipes--everything I need is always on hand for it, and its a great way to cure PMS symptoms. I've done a lot of experimenting with different types of flour-- high-gluten bread flour gives a tough, sticky dough. 1 1/2 cups of all purpose white plus 1/4 cup of coarse cornmeal is, for me anyway, perfect. The cornmeal gives it substance and sweetness. Thanks for the great recipe!

Where the heck can I get banana extract?

These are seriously the best muffins I have ever had - even pre-veganism. After tasting one of these muffins, my boyfriend got down on one knee and proposed...these are amazing. I topped the dough - before baking them - with sugar and cinnamon, it made them absolutely ridicious. My boyfriend says we need to keep one of these in our pockets at all time so whenever someone asks - what do you eat, than we can give one to them.

Another thing - I didn't use any banana extract at all and I added about 2 tbsp of vanilla soymilk at the end when it needed a tiny bit of moisture.

These muffins are so GREAT! I've made them three times and everyone loves them! I use 1c. light spelt flour and 3/4 c fresh ground oatflour,1 tsp vanilla and a spash of soy milk instead of the bannana extract and current fav is to use walnuts, dates and dark choc chips! Heat up any left overs in the toaster oven! Yum!

Wow, these are now my absolutely all-time favourite banana muffins, hands down! I followed vegan_katies suggestions by skipping the banana extract and adding a couple of tablespoons of vanilla soymilk at the end, and they came out perfectly. Thank you so much!
