76. Coconut, Chocolate and Banana Mini Muffin
7:30 am Home Cooking, Just out from the oven, Rise and shine, Tea Time Treats
I don’t bake much, nor do I prepare anything for tea, not most of the times since we don’t really do tea, really.
But while I was browsing through a magazine, I believe it was Olive, I saw this really easy muffin recipe, mini muffin recipe that is.
It has all the ingredients that I like : coconut, chocolate and bananas. So OK, I don’t really dig banana, but I could trick my husband into eating this because I could say that it contained bananas (and not saying anything about coconut which he hated).
COCONUT, CHOCOLATE, AND BANANA MINI MUFFINS

- 50g caster sugar
- 3 ripe bananas, chopped roughly

Method
- Preheat oven to 180C. Grease 3×12 holes mini muffin tins with a little butter (I omit this because mine is a heavy nonstick muffin tin).
- Whizz the butter, sugar, bananas, eggs and vanilla extract in a food processor until well combined. I just whizzed it in the blender.
- In another bowl, add chocolate, dessicated coconuts and flour. Fold in the bananas mixtures, enough to moisten the flour.
- Divide the mixture equally between the muffin holes. Bake for 15 minutes until it turned golden and had risen somewhat.
- Cool slightly in the muffin tin, then turn the muffin out onto a rack to cool completely. Serve plain or dusted with icing sugar.
