Cocoa Butterscotch Banana Muffins

March 27, 2015 by Chantal Leave a Comment

Cocoa Butterscotch Banana Muffins

A never-ending stream of overripe bananas that make their way to my freezer each week, from leftovers of the large claw of yellow green fruit I buy regularly that doesn’t make it to our lunch boxes.   I love bananas, and I always have some on my kitchen counter, but I always overbuy them, so […]

There are so many things to love about this recipe.  First, as the title gives away, it is quick to make.  This is simple, and comes together almost like a stir fry does…you just keep adding ingredients to a pan, while stirring, and in moments, you’re rewarded with a glamorous feast.  Secondly, this tastes amazing!

Ginger Spice Muffins

Ginger Spice Muffins

These started out life as Nigella Lawson’s Christmas Muffins, from her illustrious Nigella Christmas cookbook. All of the wonderful flavours we naturally associate with Christmas are here – clementines, ginger, cranberry. The recipe itself is easy enough to whip up on Christmas morning, and after eating a few with my morning coffee, I’ve decided these […]
