baked banana bites to go

03.17.15

What to do with your over ripened bananas???  How about some delicious and healthy mini baked banana bites to go?

You are going to love so much about this treat.

Just know…

I love to cook and bake and I only share recipes that I love and usually they’re pretty easy to follow along.  You might not be a seasoned cook or baker but most of my recipes are pretty simple.

I learned of someone the other day that doesn’t like bananas.  I didn’t know there was such a thing. Do you know someone who doesn’t like them?

Anyway…here you go.

 Baked Banana Bites

  • 1 3/4 c. flour
  • 2 t. baking powder
  • 1/2 t. salt
  • 1/2 t. cinnamon
  • 1/4 c. apple sauce
  • oil
  • 1/2 c. brown sugar
  • large egg
  • 1 t. vanilla bean paste
  • 1 ripe banana (mashed)
  • 2 T. coconut pieces finely chopped (optional)
  • 1/2 c. coconut milk
  • *chopped nuts (optional)

For Coating:

  • spicy sugar (1/4 c. granulated sugar mixed with 1 t. allspice)
  • 1/4 c. melted butter

Preheat oven to 350, spray your mini muffin tin & set aside.

In medium bowl, whisk together the flour & other dry ingredients.  In a measuring cup add the 1/4 c. applesauce and when adding oil, have it reach the 1/3 c. mark.

Combine this in a large bowl with the sugar, egg and vanilla  Mix well and gradually add in the mashed banana then gently stirring in the milk.  Toss in the coconut pieces and nuts – optional.

Add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture.

Mixing just until well combined but careful to not over mix or stir.

Drop by spoonful into each mini tin cup and bake for 10-12 minutes.

Cool for 2 minutes then remove and gently roll in melted butter and then toss around in the spicy sugar mix.

Serve warm or cold.

Either way, they’re delicious little bites that are great with a tall glass of ice cold milk or to go for those very busy mornings.

Scrumptious

Want to know what I love about these:

  • tasty
  • easy
  • great snack for busy lifestyles
  • everyone will enjoy them

You can also freeze them!  I just thaw and reheat or enjoy at room temp.

What is there to not love about these?  You’ll be going bananas over them. I make a double batch and serve one batch and freeze the rest for another time.

Easy peasy~

Hope you will comment and tell me what you think!

My little 3 year old grandson was upset with me ye My little 3 year old grandson was upset with me yesterday. 
.
All because he decided to take his blankie home 2 days before and when we layed down to take a nap yesterday he was upset.  Upset he didn’t have his blankie and upset at Mimzy for not getting it for him. I hate to see children unhappy and that little face of his with tears rolling down made me sadder than he was.  I gave him 3 other blankets that didn’t replace his #1 blankie.  When he woke up he was still mad at me! 
.
It was the 1st and hopefully last time he’s ever mad at me, cause I sure didn’t like that and I didn’t even cause the problem to begin with. All I know is that we got that blankie back over here to avoid this happening again. The clock maybe ticking and he’s growing full speed ahead but I don’t want to see that little man mad at his Mimzy if I can help it!

Cloudy Friday and 28 degrees. . And I’ll take it Cloudy Friday and 28 degrees.

And I’ll take it! Yes, I could’ve easily stayed curled up in bed for a few more hours but it’s my favorite day of the week and there’s playing with the grands to be done!
.
Definitely more important than sleeping in! Or is it? 🤣😂

Boo and I were shopping in DesMoines and we stopped in at a local tortilleria as I had ordered some masa. However they informed me they only sell in 10 pounds or more... so out the window went my “I’ll just get 5 pounds of masa for tamales” plan. Ten pounds of masa later, I immediately called my sister for backup help! Lol
.
So today is the day for tamales!  First time I’ll make ‘em since my mommas been gone.  So I’m hoping she’s watching and guiding me along. 
.
On a good note... the masa texture looks amazing so I’m hoping it’s a good sign!!! Wish me luck!

Well, it’s a different word for a Butler’s pantry. We’ve been updating ours and I find that I’m not a Butler’s pantry kinda girl. I replaced the original door with this beauty of a door I snatched for $12! I repaired the broken panes and  took a piece of plywood to make a new center panel. I then added these details on it. 
.
Our home was built for the David Dancer family in 1883. I added the wash, fold, etc. as the space also houses our laundry room. One of these days I can show you the REST of the space but until now, you get a peek at the lovely old door leading into our scullery!
