Ingredients for Banana Nut Muffins With Splenda

  • Sugar Substitute
  • Egg
  • Lemon Juice

How to Make Banana Nut Muffins With Splenda

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter and 1/2 cup (100g) Splenda until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups (190g) all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  5. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined.
  6. Add 3 mashed ripe bananas (about 1 1/2 cups), and 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans.
  7. If the batter seems too thick, add 1-2 tablespoons of milk until desired consistency is reached.
  8. Fill each muffin liner about 2/3 full.
  9. Bake for 20-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  10. Let cool in the muffin tin for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
