Chiquita Bananas and honey create a naturally sweet and delicious muffin accented with chopped pecans.

Ingredients:

  • 3   whole very ripe Chiquita Bananas (peel should have brown flecks)
  • 3/4   cup Honey
  • 2   Eggs, beaten
  • 1/3   cup Butter, melted
  • 1/3   cup low-fat Buttermilk

  • 1/2   cup chopped Pecans

Instructions for:

best Chiquita Banana Honey Pecan Muffins Recipe

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line muffin tins with paper or foil cups. Mash bananas in a medium bowl. Stir in honey, eggs, butter, buttermilk and vanilla. In a large bowl combine the flour, baking soda and baking powder. Pour the banana and honey mixture into the dry ingredients and stir just to combine. The batter should be lumpy. Stir in pecans. Divide batter among the prepared muffin cups. Bake at 375 degrees F for about 18 minutes. Muffins are done when tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in one of the center muffins comes out clean.

Tips:
1. Use an ice cream scooper for an easy way to fill muffin cups.
2. Lightly coat the inside of a measuring cup with vegetable oil spray before measuring the honey to make it easier to remove the honey from the cup.

Serving Suggestions: Garnish each muffin with a half pecan or additional chopped pecans.

    You will be using all purpose flour. That's why you have to add the baking powder and soda.

    I agree, they are good, but need a little pinch of salt. They're kind of bland.

    I feel like these are missing a bit of salt to bring in the flavor. Didn't think about it not being in the recipe until they were in the oven. Other than that, they are good and easy to make more nutricious!!
