  • Recipe Submitted by on

 Ingredients List

  • 3 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoons baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 10 tablespoons unsalted butter (softened)
  • 1½ cups plain yogurt
  • 1½ cups bananas (thinly diced)
  • ¾ cup pecans (toasted and coarsely chopped)

 Directions

This recipe will make 12 jumbo muffins – or 24 regular.
Lightly spray muffin tins with cooking spray, or use liners. Preheat oven to 375F.
In a medium size bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and nutmeg.
In a large bowl using an electric mixer beat the butter, and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating until well combined.
Using the electric mixer on low speed mix in half the flour, followed by ½ cup yogurt. Mix in the rest of the flour and add the remaining yogurt ½ cups at a time; using a large spoon mix in the diced bananas and pecans.
Divide the mixture evenly between the muffin cups. Bake jumbos for 25 to 30 minutes until muffins are golden brown and a tooth pick inserted comes out clean - bake regular size for 20 to 25 minutes.
Serve hot with butter on top.
