Banana Oat muffins

Happy n blessed year of 2012. I did not go anywhere due to cancellation of tickets n mum having an ischemic stroke. An alternative for my cny in Melbourne also been cancelled due to missing the deadline of having booking with Brunei airline. So will go there during Autumn time in OZ which just a right weather for us.

This year to kick start the year 2012, we celebrated Near Year Eve dinner outside with my inlaws. The 1st dinner of year in brother Loo's house and other church members. It was a potbless dinner n everyone brought different dishes to welcome 2012.
For me I cooked nasi bryani and a traditional dish of Melanau delicacy done from scratch.
I will write out the receipe when free to do so.











As CNY is just approaching n the Chinese cultural heritage is to throughly clean the house from top to bottom to welcome a new year n hence everything beleived to be new and new blessings flow. These few weeks hubby and me took a deliberate decision to indulge in the spring cleaning for it been very messy here n there after away from home for 2 years. Many unused magazines, children textbooks, files, plastic containers, newspapers, paper boxes and many unwanted obsolete items were being removed.

I always have the passion to do cooking n baking and while cleaning the kitchen cabinets my eyes caught on the cooking n baking utensils and hence a thought of getting to utilise the several over ripe banana on the table. Thus came my own modified Banana Muffins. I am rather health concious n I do not often go with all plain flour so I need to make it into more nutritious n easily be assimilated by the body. Hai hai ... if wanna make from scratch, just follow my self designed and proven palatable muffin... hubby loves it and can take a few in a go. Below is a picture I took after just came out from oven with my ipod.




360 gm of plain flour
150 gm oat
200 gm castor sugar
200 gm corn oil
180 gm milk power n dissolved in 360gm of water.
2 tea spoon of cinnamon powder
3 tea spoon of baking powder
2 tea spoon of bicarbonate soda
3 pieces of ripe banana
3 eggs

Preheat the oven to 200*C. Put the muffin paper cups on the muffin tin.
Sift flour into a large bowl, add in the oat and castor sugar, baking powder, bicarbonate soda and cinnamon powder. Make a well in the centre of the mixture.
Then add in the combined banana, egg, corn oil and milk powder which is dissoved in the water. Just lightly beat the mixture.
Finally spoon the mixture into the prepared muffin paper cups. Sprinkle the topping with mixed nuts to your own preference. I prefered appricots, sultanas,mangoes, rasins, almonds, groundnuts, tree nuts and walnuts. The whole bunch of mixed that I got it from oversea which is very much handy for decoration.
