Caramelized Peanut Butter Banana Muffins

Followed Joy the Baker's Peanut Butter Banana Bread Recipe, but caramelized the bananas and made muffins.

 

• I also divided the recipe in half, and substituted some homebrew Saison for banana.

For the bananas:
2 ripe bananas

• Peel bananas, and slice into large pieces
• Line a cookie sheet with aluminum fool and grease.
• Place the bananas on the sheet and bake at 400 for 5-10 minutes, flipping once. Bananas should be golden on the outside.

For the Muffins:

1 c mashed ripe bananas

1/3 to 1/2 c beer (I used saison)

1/3 c greek yogurt

1/3 c peanut butter

3 T butter, melted

2 large eggs

1/2 c granulated sugar

1/2 c brown sugar

1 c whole wheat flour

1/2 c A-P flour

1/4 c ground flaxseed meal

3/4 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

1/4 c chopped dry roasted peanuts

Make the Muffins: 

• Mix dry ingredients.
• Whisk bananas, yogurt, and peanut butter together. Add eggs, butter, and sugars. 
• Mix wet and dry. Add peanuts
• Allow to sit for 5 minutes to set up.
• Scoop 2 T batter per muffin container.
• Bake 350F for 15-18 minutes.
