CHOCOLATE BANANA MUFFIN

This banana-choc muffin is lovely. It combines the sweetness of ripe mashed bananas with cocoa powder 

Chocolate Banana Cake is a snap to put together. Fifteen minutes is about all you need. It is more like a quick bread in that you do not use a mixer, just two bowls. One for the dry ingredients and one for the wet ingredients. The two are then mixed together and you are done. 

The fat is in liquid form, which gives the cake a wonderful moist texture and tender crumb that keeps the cake soft even when refrigerated. As far as the type of oil to use in this cake, I like to use canola, but safflower, vegetable, or corn oils are also good.  

I used soya milk instead of the normal milk and instead of frosting the muffin I just dust the muffin top with cocoa powder, it great you can have a blend of sweetness in the muffin and bitterness of cocoa powder. Great muffin that chocolate lover would definitely love!!!!

Muffin ini cukup mudah dibuat, anda cuma memerlukan 15 minit untuk menyiapkan bahan dan 20 minit untuk membakar. Satukan semua bahan kering dalam satu mangkuk dan bahan basah dalam mangkuk yang lain kemudian satukan kedua-dua bahan ini kacau dan sudukan kedalam acuan. Resipi ini mudah kalau hendak ditutunkan ilmu memasak ini pada gadis-gadis sunti di rumah.  Untuk resipi ini saya ubahsuaikan sedikit, saya gantikan air soya dengan susu, bukan apa saje nak tenguk resultnya....hem.... tidak ada apa-apa perbezaan biasa aje..so dalam situasi anda tidak dapat mencekau susu, soya pun boleh digunakan.

Untuk toppingnya saya tidak meletakkan frosting sebaliknya saya letakkan serbuk koko aje.... menarik juga dapatlah rasa manis-manis mufin dan pahit-pahit serbuk koko.
