The Crazy Kitchen: Muesli & Banana Muffins

Muesli & Banana Muffins

These are great for using up the last dregs of the muesli, which we always seem to have after everyone decides they like muesli, I buy a box and then the novelty wears off. They are like banana muffins with a bit of added texture from the muesli. They're very moist and not dissimilar to banana bread, so you could slice them in half & spread with butter.

I used greaseproof paper instead of paper cases as I watched Lorraine Pascale do it, and it's a lot cheaper than using the fancy tulip cases - just a little more rustic. I've also used Almond Milk instead of regular milk, just because I love it, but it also means that they're dairy free.

  1. As you know I am no stranger to making cakes out of bananas! They always add a lovely moistness too. I have never tried them with muesli but they look lovely and I am sure they were healthy too? X
