Stunning Banana Nut Muffins With Strawberry | A Step-by-Step Recipe
Get ready for a very special muffin: banana nut muffins with strawberry! To be totally honest, these exceeded my expectations. When I’m developing new recipes, sometimes they don’t turn out the way I envision and I have to try again, but these were a knockout on the first go! They’re wonderful. I love ’em and I know you’ll love ’em, too.
Banana and strawberries are a wonderful combination. While they’re used all the time in smoothies, we don’t see them all that often in other dishes. Why not use them in baked goods? I’ve baked several strawberries and banana nut bread and used my knowledge to create a combined muffin version. I kept walnuts in the recipe because I wanted them to have a little crunch. Hence, strawberry banana nut muffins were born!
You’re going to like these because they’re healthy, moist, dense, and have lots of character. The flavor is balanced: you can taste the banana, strawberries, and nuts. Also, they’re healthy- no butter or oil and made with applesauce, yogurt, and whole wheat flour. My favorite thing about them besides how tasty they are? The fact they’re unique. It’s great to bake something people get to try for the first time. Everyone likes variety and novel experiences, especially when it comes to food. For all these reasons, I know you’re going to like them.
