Ingredients

self-raising flour 250g
baking powder 1 tsp
bicarbonate of soda ½ tsp
light brown muscovado sugar 100g
bananas 2 large or 3 small, mashed
eggs 2
buttermilk 125ml
butter 75g melted
oats 3 tbsp

Method

Step 1

Line a 12-hole muffin tin and heat the oven to 190c/fan 170c/gas 5. Sift the dry ingredients into a bowl. Mix the bananas, eggs, buttermilk and butter, then add to the dry mix with a pinch of salt. Fold it together lightly and quickly. Don’t worry if the mixture looks lumpy – keep going until it is smooth and your muffins will be tough. Spoon into the muffin cases and sprinkle on oats. Bake for 20 minutes, then cool on a wire rack.
