healthy banana bread with dark chocolate chips

bismillahirrahmanirraheem..
assalamu'alaikum wrt wbt

am into healthy breakfast (yes breakfast only :p) nowadays
so.. i made this healthy bread & muffins last weekend
(i got 4 teeny-weeny mini loaf and 10 or more muffins)
and just had the last slice for this morning breakfast!
its healthy. it keeps well in the fridge. and its yummy!

i ate 4 of them while driving on sunday morning. bedal sakan! 

source: moresweetsplease

• 4 very ripe bananas, well mashed
• 2 eggs plus 1 egg white, lightly beaten
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 2 cups whole wheat flour
• 3/4 cups Sucanat (evaporated cane juice/ sugar) 
• 1 tablespoon ground flax seeds
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 3 oz dark chocolate, chopped or choc chips (about 1/2 cup)

1. Preheat oven to 350° and grease either a large loaf pan, three mini-loaf pans, or a large muffin pan.
2. Mix mashed bananas with eggs and vanilla, and then stir in flour, Sucanat, flax seeds, salt and baking soda until just combined.  Gently stir in chocolate and pour batter in prepared pans.
3. Bake a large loaf pan for 60 minutes, mini-loaf pans for 35 minutes, and muffins for 20 minutes (until cake tester or wooden skewer comes out mostly clean).  Set on cooling racks for 5 – 10 minutes, then remove from pans to finish cooling.

tips:

1. Ripe bananas, please.  Yellow ones just won’t do- they need to be more black than brown.  I wouldn’t bother making the bread if the bananas aren’t ready.  Better to make a banana split or a banana/almond butter/almond milk/cinnamon shake if you feel the urgent need to use up your bananas.
2. Substitutes?  But of course.  Use regular flour if you don’t have the whole wheat, and regular or brown sugar if you don’t have Sucanat.  Skip the flax seeds if you want.  (Just know that you won’t be able to call these Impossibly Healthy if you take out the healthy ingredients.)  If you don’t have dark chocolate, you can chop up other kinds of chocolate (or use chocolate chips)- but again, you lose the right to use the Healthy claim… just so you know.  Dark chocolate wins in the antioxidant department and is less sweetened than its semi-sweet and bittersweet counterparts.
3. Nuts… yes, nuts are lovely in banana bread, especially walnuts.  Toast some and add them in if you’d like.  They’ll bring a healthy fat to the party, which is good but something to consider if you’re looking to take some of the fat out of your life.
4. “Healthy”: Be sure to explain to people that this is a Healthy bread- yes, with a capital H- and while it’s super-good, it’s definitely not a decadently sweet and rich classic banana bread like this recipe.  When you build whole wheat and flax and raw sugar and you strip out butter and oil and a yolk, you’re not getting an indulgent treat.  But you do have my word that this is pretty damned good.
5. Storage: keep this bread wrapped in plastic wrap (or in an airtight container) to stay moist, and eat within a few days.  Enjoy!

note:

my batter is quite thick, i assume due to the not-so-ripe bananas. so, i added few tablespoons of low fat milk and canola oil. alhamdulillah.. it turn out great! 

buttermilk crumb muffins

bismillahirrahmanirraheem..
assalamu'alaikum wrm wbt,

lepas tengok cerita the lorax sama2.. anak2 sedara datang rumah
katanya nak bawak something utk potluck (or isit farewell?) ke opis esok
dia nak buat yang simpel2 ja.. say.. a muffins?
saya pun belek2 buku nigella.. buku jamie.. tp xdak yg menarik hati
bila terjumpa buttermilk crumb muffins dlm buku baking with julia
terus tergoda! sebab ada buttermilk! pasti lembut gebus ;)

sumber: baking with julia by dorie greenspan

• 2 1/2cups all-purpose flour
• 2cups light brown sugar <-- next time i'll reduce to 1 1/4C
• 2/3cups solid vege shortening <-- i use butter (150g)
• 2tsp baking powder 
• 1/2tsp baking soda
• 1/2tsp cinnamon
• 1/2tsp ground nutmeg
• 1/2tsp salt
• 1cup buttermilk
• 2 large eggs, beaten

1. Preheat the oven to 350° (170C) . Line with muffin-liners, a 12-cup muffin tin. Set aside.
2. In a large bowl, combine the flour and brown sugar. Cut the butter into small pieces and add to the bowl. Rub the butter into the dry ingredients. When the mixture looks like coarse breadcrumbs, measure out 1/2cup and set it aside to use as the crumb topping.
3. Add the baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt to the remaining flour mixture and stir with forks. Add the buttermilk and eggs. Using a rubber spatula, mix until the ingredients are well blended, until batter is thick and shiny.
4. Divide the batter among the 12 muffin cups about 2/3cups full. Sprinkle the top of each muffin with the reserved crumb mixture and pat it gently onto the batter. if you have any empty muffins mould, fill halfway with water. this will help muffins bake evenly.
5. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. Serve warm. Makes 12 muffins.

lembut! i simply love buttermilk :)

Variations:

• Add ½ cup chocolate chips along with the spices.
• Add ½ cup chopped nuts to the reserved topping mixture.
• The batter and crumb topping may be spread in a greased and floured 9x9-inch baking pan to make a coffee cake.

to be frank.. i totally forgot abt the leavening agent: baking soda & baking powder! huhuhu.. it does raise a bit.. but not as nice and as soft as a muffins-should-be. its quite good tho.. love the buttermilk effect ~ soft. harap2 teman sepejabat anak sedara sudi makan.. anyhow, next time (insyallah.. will do it again) i will just put 2tsp baking powder and omit the baking soda. and add chopped nuts to the crumb.. insyaallah.. insyaallah..

banana honey walnut muffins

bila jualan disekolah semalam laku..

(bawak pun 5ketul je :p)
anak dara mintak ummi buatkan kek lagi
dia kata nak muffins special. apa yg special pun taktau :(
ummi dia teringin nak terai muffins lain
lain dalam ertikata tak pernah rasa..
dan tak pernah cuba buat sebelum ni
bila tanya banana & walnut ok tak?
mula2 katanya taknak walnut.. kemudian dia kata ok jelah..

banana honey walnut muffins
adapted from onceuponachef

•       ¾ cup chopped walnuts
•       ⅓ cup plus 1 tablespoon honey
•        ½ teaspoon cinnamon
•             1½ cups all-purpose flour
•           1½ teaspoons baking powder
•            ½ teaspoon salt
•            1 stick unsalted butter, at room temperature
•             ⅔ cup granulated sugar
•            2 large eggs
•            ½ cup mashed bananas (you'll need 1 large very ripe banana)
•            1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
•            ⅓ cup whole or low fat milk 

1. Preheat the oven to 350°. Spray a 12-cup muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray, then line with paper liners (it is necessary to do both so that muffin tops don't stick to pan).
2. In a small bowl, toss the nuts with the 1 tablespoon of honey and cinnamon until nuts are evenly coated (obviously, it will be very sticky).
3. In a medium bowl, combine the flour with the baking powder and salt. Use a whisk to blend well. Set aside.
4. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the butter with the sugar and the remaining 1/3 cup of honey until fluffy, 2-3 minutes. Scrape down sides of bowl with rubber spatula if necessary. At medium speed, add the eggs one at a time and beat until fully incorporated between additions. Beat in the banana and vanilla until blended. (It will look grainy.) At low speed, beat in the dry ingredients in 2 batches, alternating with the milk.
5. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin (I like to use an ice cream scooper) and sprinkle with the nut topping. Bake the muffins until the tops are golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Let the muffins cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn them out onto a rack and let cool for at least 15 minutes before serving.

     verdict: 

     sangat lembut & ringan. its the lightest banana cake/ muffins i ever taste!
     and the sweetness is just nice :) 

     harapnya laku la jugak jualan kat sekolah tu ;)

     tapi yang bestnya.. hasil jualan masuk tabung sekolah 

     ini macam bangkraplah tokey! :p

sementelah cornmeal masih berbaki, saya gugel resepi cornmeal muffins.
satu chocolate muffins, satu jenis lagi cornmeal muffins..

tapi bila dah siap cornmeal muffins ni..

maka, cornmeal muffins ni jadi habuan teman2 di ofis ;)

sumber: leannebakes

• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• zest of 1 lemon <-- i use orange zest
• 1 cup cornmeal
• 1 cup flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 beaten egg
• 1/4 cup oil
• 1 cup milk
• 1/2 cup jam (I used raspberry, but it's really up to you)

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugar and lemon zest with your fingers until the sugar is a yellowish color. Add in the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, and salt. Add in the beaten egg, oil and milk, stirring until just combined.
