2020 - May 25 - Curry Banana muffins - Banana Coconut Muffins

Monday 25 May 2020

This morning I walked 3 kilometers around the house.  The weather is overcast and chilly.

A few nights ago we made ostrich curry.  Some of the curry sauce were left ... that got me thinking.

If I put this into a muffin ... but then I thought - some people have bananas and coconut with their curry ...

And the Curry Banana Muffin was born!!





Curry sauce banana coconut muffins
Makes 12

1 cup self-rising flour
1 cup curry sauce
1 large egg, beaten
½ cup milk
¼ cup oil
12 slices fresh banana
Coconut to roll bananas in
Salt and pepper

Preheat oven to 190 oC.  Grease 12 muffin pan. (I put squares of foil in each hole and spray it – keep muffin pan ‘clean’.) 

Mix the milk, oil, egg and HALF A CUP (1/2 CUP) curry sauce together.  Add the self-rising flour.

Roll each slice of banana in desiccated coconut.  Into each muffin hole, spoon 1 tablespoon of curry-self rising mixture.  Spoon some curry sauce on, place the coconut-covered banana slice on and cover with another spoon of curry-self rising mixture.

Bake for 25 minutes.  Let cool in pan for about 5 minutes, carefully remove the foil and let it cool down for 5 more minutes on wire rack.  Enjoy.

The verdict?  Absolutely lovely!  What a way to re-use a cup of curry sauce.  I could have added more salt, but that's just my preference.

Hein bought 3 bananas ... I've used 1 for the curry muffins ... and I had about 1/2 cup of coconut left ...  Banana Coconut Muffins.

Delicious!!
