Muffins Recipe ❘ Lactose-Free Banana and Blueberry Muffins

Beautifully soft on the inside with a slight crunch to the outside, these muffins beat traditional blueberry muffins and have the added deliciousness of banana. Especially great served warm and straight out of the oven! Best eaten a day or two after they're made though they will store for 3 days in an airtight container. Totally addictive and very much lactose free so they're easy to digest!

Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• ¾ cup self-rising flour
• 2 ½ teaspoons baking powder
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• ¾ teaspoon salt
• ¾ cup brown sugar
• 6 tablespoons white sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• ½ cup lactose-free milk (such as Zymil®)
• ½ cup vegetable oil
• 2 large ripe bananas
• 1 ½ cups frozen blueberries

Cooking Directions

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease 18 muffin cups with oil or line cups with paper liners.
2. Sift all-purpose flour, self-rising flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt together into a small bowl. Sift the flour mixture again into a larger bowl; stir in brown sugar and white sugar. Make a well in the centre of the flour mixture.
3. Lightly beat eggs with the vanilla extract in a bowl. Add milk and whisk until well combined. Whisk in vegetable oil in a slow stream. Mash bananas well with a fork; fold in until thoroughly combined.
4. Pour egg-banana mixture into the well of the flour mixture in a slow stream, stirring to combine using a metal spoon. Stir the mixture until just combined. Fold in blueberries. Spoon batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each 3/4 full.
5. Bake in the preheated oven until tops spring back when lightly pressed and a skewer inserted in the centre comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Allow muffins to stand in the cups for 3 to 5 minutes before turning them out on to a wire rack to cool.
