Ingredients
- 200 grams all-purpose flour
- 175 grams whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 140 grams cultured unsalted butter (10 tablespoons, at room temperature)
- 100 grams evaporated cane sugar (about ½ cup packed)
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest (zest of 1 lemon)
- 300 grams bananas (~4 very ripe bananas)
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup PLAIN yogurt
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
- Adjust the oven rack to the lower middle position and then preheat to 375 degrees F. Line a 12 cup muffin pan with muffin liners.
- Sift together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking soda, and salt.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter, sugar and lemon zest until light and fluffy (about 3 minutes).
- Mash the bananas, eggs, yogurt and lemon juice together until the mixture is uniform, and there are no lumps (a hand blender will speed this up).
- With the mixer running at medium speed, slowly pour in ⅓ of the banana mixture to the butter.
- Turn off the mixer and add half the flour mixture, mixing at low speed until just combined. Continue alternating the banana mixture and flour mixture until they both added.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, dividing evenly and then put the pan in the oven. Bake until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of one comes out clean (about 20-25 minutes).
- Let the lemon banana muffins cool until they are cool enough to handle, and serve warm.
