Doctored banana muffins

by Caroline

My favorite way to cook is to start with something really easy and amp it up with a little bit of thought. Experimenting with basics is a great way to learn how food works.

Start with a basic banana muffin mix. I used Krusteaz (honestly, who named this brand?) but I’d imagine they’re all similar. Prepare the batter as indicated.

Stir in the following:

  • 3/4 cup chopped walnuts
  • 3/4 cup chocolate chips (I used Ghirardelli semi-sweets)
  • 2 carrots, peeled and finely grated
  • 1 banana, cut into fourths lengthwise then chopped

Bake at the prescribed temperature. Be prepared for a few extra minutes of baking time because of the moisture in the banana and carrots.
