I wish you could smell my house at the moment, the smell of banana chocolate chips muffins is a wafting through the air. Yessss......
Okay, so I am still on the no 'poo routine.... but let me tell you.... it has been a tuff one to stick out. UGH, when I read that it will take your hair 4-6 weeks to adjust to the change I didn't realize how much they seriously meant that! BUT I will not quit, it would be so easy to.... the shampoo has been taunting me when I take a shower. But NO I say to that evil little bottle; and to myself, I can do this.
My hubby says it doesn't look bad, but to me it feels gross... like maybe my hair it going to transition into dreads. We had to go out on sat. night to a stag and doe..... I was walking around thinking..... everyone is looking at my hair. But I know I am my worst critic and Mike really wouldn't have let me leave if it was bad, he is a good husband. Maybe? Haha. Okay, okay! Well I have just passed the one week mark, I am washing it again today and I promise to post a picture when it is dry!
Also, are you loving this weather? It's summer in the middle of March, well at least on this side of town it is! :) :) :) YAY!
So those Eggless Banana Muffins that are making my house smell divine, you wanted that recipe right? Yes, I thought you did. Having no eggs in the house and wanting to bake can leave any of us in a jam. So I am happy to say these turned out FANTASTIC!
Lately I have been making Mikes granola bars at home instead of buying the icky store bought kind (I can say that now because the ones I make are DIVINE! Want the recipe? Maybe later, lol.). Well, yesterday I had to make him his snacks for the rest of the week and found myself with no ingredients for the granola, and no eggs for cookies.... or something? But I had banana's, yes, that was a start. So I googled eggless banana bread, found some recipes.... not really good rating's. Then I stumbled on this recipe for Strawberry Banana Muffins... Eggless!!! Hm.. but I didn't have strawberries, and I didn't have yogurt. So here is how I made them :)
Eggless Chocolate Banana Muffcakes
(oh, and I doubled the recipe; ya, it makes 36 and goes in the freezer for his lunches:)
- 1 cup Melted Butter
- 1 cup Sour Cream (Instead of 2 Eggs)
- 2 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 6-8 mashed up Banana's (med-large)
- 2 cup Chocolate chips
- 4 and 1/2 cups All Purpose Flour
- 1 and 3/4 cups packed Brown sugar
- 4 teaspoons Raw Cocoa Powder
- 3 teaspoons Baking Powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda
- 1-2 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Salt
Preheat the oven to 350 and line your cupcake tins with cupcake liners.
Melt the butter in microwave (I use defrost for like 30-50 seconds and it melts wonderfully and comes out JUST warm), and set aside.
In a large bowl mix together the dry ingredients from chocolate chips to the salt.
In an other bowl mix together the wet ingredients.
Now add the wet to the dry, and mix oh so gently. You want the batter to JUST be mixed so your muffcakes don't come out dense.
Scoop with an ice cream scoop and sprinkle with brown sugar.
Bake for 20-25 minutes on the middle rack. Mine baked in 25, but my oven kind of sucks. So make sure you check at 20 if you know you have a hot oven. Insert a tooth pick and if it comes out clean, they are done!
I can't wait to play around with this and invent new variations!
Hope you enjoy :)
