What happens when you don't eat bananas on time? They become either banana bread or banana nut muffins. But what happens when you try something new and be a little daring. Unfortunately it becomes Banana muffins gone bad. Yesterday I had two over ripe bananas and I thought I would try a different recipe. I saw a box of Honey Cornbread Muffin Mix in our cupboard. The recipe did not look hard, mix 1 cup of milk, one egg and the mixture. So I did and decided to add the mashed banana and some chopped walnuts. After a few minutes in the oven, I checked and it did not look right. But since I had about 10 more minutes left, I thought it should be OK. When the timer went off, I remove the muffin pan from the oven. I let it cool and thought of having it for my afternoon snack. I took one bite and it was very dense and dry. There was not much flavor but I took another bite at which time I decided it was not something I would like to finish eating. My only conclusion is that the box was too old so I checked for an expiry date and found none. Anyway, I thought of taking a photo just for show. Lesson learned - keep in simple, use recipes that have great result.
As you can see those cracks was the clue as my normal muffins does not create cracks. |
