Ingredients
- 4 ripe bananas
- 200g self raising flour
- 100g golden caster sugar
- 75g unsalted butter
- 60g chopped pecans
- 50g Horlicks Instant
- 2 large eggs
- 100ml semi-skimmed milk
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp cinnamon
Method
Preheat oven to 170°C.
Mash the bananas, vanilla, cinnamon and maple syrup in a bowl and keep to one side.
In a different bowl, mix together the Horlicks Light, flour, bicarbonate of soda, baking powder and pecans (keeping a few back to top the muffins).
In another bowl, cream together the soft butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time to the creamed butter with a spoonful of flour mix and beat until smooth.
Add the remaining flour and then add the banana mix. Mix together until it forms a smooth batter.
Line a muffin tin with cupcake cases and spoon in the batter. Sprinkle with the remaining broken pecans.
Cook for 20 minutes, remove from the oven and leave to cool on a wire rack.
