Banana oatbran muffins


In the beginning of very week I buy bananas and in the end of the week I have brown bananas in our fruit bowl. It can be nice to put over ripe bananas in smoothies but cold winter mornings I am not very tempted by a cold drink so I made banana muffins instead this week. I have been working on a "perfect" banana muffin recipe for a while now and it seems I finally have it! It can be made with only plain four but this time i mixed it with oat bran and it makes the muffina little heartier and in my opinion tastier too.
Because Valentines Day is coming up I decided to make mini muffins in heart shapes, so pretty to look at. If you have small muffin cups they cam be used instead or you can just make normal sized ones.

20 mini muffins/8 large muffins

60 grams butter, room temperature
75 grams brown, soft sugar
90 grams plain flour
40 grams oat bran
30ml plain youghurt
1 large banana
1 egg
1/2tsp bicarbonate of soda

Beat sugar and butter fluffy, add the banana in small pieces and the egg, continue to beat until well blended. Sieve flour, oat bran and bicarbonate of sode into the wet mixture and fold together, last adding the yoghurt. Fill muffin cups 2/3 and bake on 200C for 12-18min depending on what size muffins you are making, a skewer should come out dry when the muffins are ready.
