RER Pop Quiz: What do you get when you combine ripe bananas…
Answer: Happiness, that’s what. Or you could call it Banana Peanut Flour Muffins, it’s up to you.
Recipe:
1 c. Whole wheat flour
1c. Peanut Flour
1/2 tsp. salt
3/4 tsp. baking soda
1/2c brown sugar
1/2 Greek yogurt
2 eggs or 1/2c egg beaters
1 1/2 c. mashed ripe banana
1/3 c. almond milk
1 tsp. vanilla extract
Directions:
Heat oven 350 degrees.
Mix flours, salt and baking soda. In a separate bowl combine greek yogurt and brown sugar until combined thoroughly. Add eggs, banana, vanilla and almond milk. Combine dry and wet ingredients.
Spray muffin pan with non-stick spray. Scoop mix into pan. Bake for about 18 minutes (keep an eye on them as my muffins were big).
And now you’ve got freshly baked banana peanut muffins hot out of the oven!
I like my muffins BIG!
They needed a little something so I frosted my bites with chocolate almond butter.
Since today is Confession Thursday, I have to confess I added chocolate chips to the remaining batter and baked it as a tiny loaf. I meant to share some with Ben, but it was too good. Sorry Ben.
Earlier today I had lunch at home between school and work. Since I already knew what I was making for dinner I decided to make part of it right then so dinner prep would be easier.
I squeezed the water out of tofu yesterday…
and today I topped it with a mix of soy sauce, garlic, Sriacha, and a random dressing. Then, I baked it at 350 for about 30 minutes.
They came out so amazing I ended up eating three pieces before heading to work. Um, I guess I can call it a snack?
Since I basically ruined my dinner by eating it earlier I ate leftovers from last night and ate muffins for dinner.
Random snacks at work – cucs, carrots, grapes and trail mix. My snacks were as exciting as my work. Fabulous.
Question: Did you watch TV tonight (last night if you’re reading this Friday morning)? What did you watch?
I haven’t watched TV for so long I’m just excited to not have to study 🙂

I keep seeing recipes with peanut flour and initally i was hesitant but everything sounds just so good, and as a peanut butter fanatic I think I’ll have to jump on board.

I watch all TV on my DVR now. I can’t stand watching commercials! If I get into something that’s on at the moment and a commercial comes on I immediately press record and finish it later. I have become completely impatient! lol
So last night my husband and I watched the SVU’s from Wednesday night.
Beth says
Those muffins look great! I just bought two packages of the peanut flour, I am going to make the muffins this weekend, yummo!
Katie from Run Little Legs! says
Oh yum! I almost never cook with tofu because I simply don’t know how. But, that looks delicious. I am going to have to try baking tofu next week.
My roommates and I don’t have cable (we opted out so we don’t get distracted from studying!) So, instead, I watch old episodes of shows via Netflix. I’m now watching The Wire. I figure it’s only appropriate after just moving to Baltimore, right?
Lauren says
You’re so resourceful! 🙂 Confession: I usually buy more bananas than I know I will ever eat just so I have a reason to bake something with them. 🙂
Greys last night!!!! Although I did fall asleep for the last 10 min. Nuts, that always happens to me. 🙂

I never thought about doing that with tofu before. I will be sure to try that out and those muffins look delicious.
I have tivo so I recorded The Office, Community, CSI, Outsourced (watched that already and pretty good show), SH&t my dad says (kinda dumb).
