Another great recipe for using up ripe bananas, but this little muffin is also eggless. This soft fluffy muffin is a great lunch box treat or mid morning snack.
Bananas and chocolate are a great combination sometimes is also known as the chunky monkey! You see it in ice creams and cookies and now in my lovely easy eggless muffins.
Bananas are great in baking, as they add a subtle flavour, great texture and natural sweetness.
Buttermilk can also be used in baking as the acid in the buttermilk reacts with the rising agent, which in our case is the baking soda to produce carbon dioxide which acts as the leavening agent. This why you can get the egg effect without the egg.
