Banana & Walnut Muffin with Vanilla Cream Cheese Frosting





This moist Banana & Walnut Muffin tastes deliciously sinful but is surprisingly saintly.  
Perfect for an afternoon snack with a nice cup of espresso and a good book.
It's so simple to make, and here's how.
Ingredients for the Muffin:

  • 3-4 Large Bananas Mashed

  • 1/2 Cup of white Sugar

  • 1 Slightly Beaten Egg

  • 1/3 Cup of Melted Butter (75gm)

  • 1 tsp  of Baking Soda

  • 1 tsp of Baking Power

  • 1/2 tsp Salt

  • 1/2 Cup of Flour (Self Raising)

  • 1 Cup of chopped Walnuts



Mix the mashed Bananas, Sugar, Eggs, Butter  and set aside for later.
In a separate bowl mix together the baking soda, salt baking power and flour.
Mix together the wet and dry ingredients adding the chopped walnuts.
Pour in to large Muffin cases or greased loaf tin and bake for 20 minutes at 176c.
Ingredients for Cream Cheese Frosting:

  • 2 (8 ounce/250gm) packages cream cheese, softened


  • 1/2 cup butter, softened


  • 2 cups sifted confectioners' sugar


  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract


In a medium bowl, cream together
the cream cheese and butter until creamy. Mix in the vanilla, then
gradually stir in the confectioners' sugar. Store in the refrigerator
after use. 

Enjoy!
