This afternoon Mom, Chris, and I went to March Farms in Bethlehem, CT to pick blueberries. We picked some a couple years ago, but hadn't been back since. It was a success and we got around 5 pounds of blueberries.
What to do with all them all? Bake something of course! I found "healthier" Banana Blueberry Muffin recipe from Eating Well.
Ingredients:
3/4 cup milk
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
1/4 canola oil
2 large eggs
1 cup mashed ripe bananas (about 2 1/2 medium)
1 1/4 cup whole-wheat flour
1 cup all purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 1/4 cup blueberries, fresh or frozen (fresh is better of course :) )
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Coat 12 (1/2-cup) muffin cups with cooking spray or line with paper liners. 2. Whisk buttermilk, brown sugar, oil and eggs in a large bowl. Stir in mashed bananas.
- Whisk whole-wheat pastry flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, salt and nutmeg in a medium bowl.
- Fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and stir until just combined. Fold in blueberries. Divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups (they will be full).
- Bake until the tops are golden brown and a wooden skewer inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then remove and let cool on a wire rack for at least 5 minutes more before serving.
- Makes around 15 muffins.
those look delicious! i'm going to have to make those soon! :)
