I love how enthusiastic Bridget is when she is watching a recipe come together. All her 😋 mmmm’s😁
I bet coconut oil would taste great too
My mom's standard recipe used chopped walnuts and optional golden raisins. A wee bit of fresh nutmeg on top before going into the oven. This was another variation I came up with on my own (using AP flour) but without the sugar on top and again, a wee bit of fresh nutmeg before going into the oven.
Becky, can you show us how to make creamy flan? Thank you. 🌺
should have less sugar prevent diabetes👍
Why not use coconut oil instead of vegetable oil?
Excellent ! Yummy! , Thanks
My son loves this 🙂 will try next weekend! Keep sharing please, love your channel!! I’m subscribed 😀
They look so yummy
If I use a different nut do the ingredients change, I have walnuts and pecans on hand?
Oh my, can't wait to make these! I live in a condo and always give some to my neighbors because I know they can smell them baking. I bake early in the morning so everyone can have a fresh muffin with their coffee. Thanks Becky!
They are UH MAZING. I love anything banana, but these are seriously turned up a notch or three. 🤩🤩🤩
I’ve been using your Best Banana Bread recipe for muffins for years, subbing out 15% whole wheat flour, half butter and half oil (your recipe calls for all butter), and putting an oat streusel on top. Phenomenal every time. I’ll give these a go though. They seem a bit less complex!
Which gluten-free flour would work best in this recipe thank you
LEAVE THOSE POOR BANANAS ALONE!
Gonna leave out the coconut, cause, 🤮and sub in butterscotch chips and pecans instead of macadamia.
Can you sub apple sauce for the oil?
These muffins look fantastic!!! I like trying different banana bread recipes and thus far, I've not had a bad one!
PS. Word of caution while shopping for the macadamia nuts: I live in California in a decently sized city of about 67,000 people and I've noticed that most of the time, whenever I've looked at purchasing plain macadamia nuts, especially those sold in the small bags displayed in the baking aisle alongside the other nuts, as opposed to those sold in the snack aisle, which are usually salted or possibly roasted, seasoned, or covered in chocolate, they are often way past their "best by" / expiration date, and as we all know, macadamia nuts are some of the most expensive nuts on the market, so just be sure to check the dates on the packages before you spend your hard-earned dollars on these tasty treats.
Happy baking everyone and thank you ATK for sharing another great recipe with all of us!!! ❤️
Again with the vegetable oil…hmmm

I grind my own wheat, and don't always get a moist product. I believe this one will work great! Thanks.🥰
Hi ATK
