Totally moving as fast as I can this morning to get to school early but with muffins I’d promised.
OK. So I’m not bringing the muffins that I actually promised but muffin flavors I was hungry for and for which I had all the ingredients.
WHAT’S THE MEANING OF THIS “sort of”?
The muffins this morning follow – for the most part – the Magnolia recipe for Banana Bread with Coconut and Pecans.
I have made the following changes:
- Instead of 3 cups all-purpose flour, I used
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup Barley
- 1/4 cup whole wheat flour
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- I omitted the coconut
- Added 1 cup peanut butter chips
I was hungry for peanut butter and banana – one of my favorite snacks! So I put it in a muffin.
Also – up close and personal – anytime I make anything with bananas and pecans, I think of my father for whom Banana Nut ice cream was a favorite flavor. If you make this recipe sometime, eat a spoonful of the batter – if you too like Banana Nut ice cream.
Oooooooooooooh !!!!!! I am on the second floor of the house and I can smell those muffins RIGHT NOW!!!!
I HOPE they turn out as well as the muffins in the photo below.

If you are a follower of this blog, drop by Gail Seay’s office to see if you can grab one of these muffins – or at least see if they have turned out tempting. It really is a “I hope so” this morning.
I should also have some in my room 1106.
If you are not at my school but somewhere else in the world, keep my muffins in your prayers.
HAVE A SWEET DAY!
