Banana Muffin

On one fine evening, Grace came out with the idea to make a banana muffin. I thought this was her old competitive spirit that come back after my successful venture with Chocolate Chip Cookies. "No", She said. "We just have too much stuff in the fridge that we need to finish before it expire". The fact is that, those stuff she mentioned is mostly similar to the ingredients of my Chocolate Chip Cookies.

She eventually made one a few day after. And what was called Banana Muffin was actually really everything-in-the-fridge mixed together. In addition to Banana, Grace put some oats, carrots, raisin, and almond. So much extra stuff added that the taste of Banana is barely noticeable.

The mix adds to the richness of texture in the muffin. Most sweets come from the raisin, which is different from raw sugar. The oats and the almond add the crunchiness of different type, one is bigger, and the other is smaller. From nutrition perspective, these additional stuff add additional nutrient from any traditional muffin.

I was running in a race yesterday, and the muffin definitely made an additional after-race meal, in addition to companion of evening coffee.
