Banana Split Sprinkle Muffins

Well, you’ve had a week now to get used to the new digs.

I’m hoping you love it.

I’ve only gotten one complaint…from my own father. 🙂

He doesn’t like that he can’t tell which one is the new post.

I let he know if he reads it daily then he will always know because it will be the post he hasn’t seen yet. 😀

I have two people to thank in all of this.

My incredible designer Kaytlyn of Beneficial Studio.

The first time I ever had a redesign I used her.

If you are a long time reader you might remember it….

Old Blog Design

I wanted to go back to more of that feel and we started with a logo and ended up with what you see here.

I highly recommend her if you are looking for a redesign.

The other person I want to thank is my ex, aka, The Picky Eater.

Yep, him.

He used his computer programming skills that I soooo do not possess and he does, to do all the redirecting from the old site to the new site.

As a thank you I used my miles to fly him out to Seattle this week for the Old Dog Haven Walk.

Since he of course was close to Crazy Cocker Spaniel.

And yes, we know we are weird.

People were like what?

You cashed in your miles to fly our ex-husband out?

Yep.

Banana Split Sprinkle Muffins

So you might want to consider making these fun Banana Split Sprinkle Muffins.

This is more vanilla based than banana (only uses one…sorry to those of you with 19 leftover Costco bananas :P).

Then filled with all things I like on a banana spilt.

You can fill yours with whatever you like on your banana split.

But don’t forget the sprinkles…because they are for winners…and you’re a winner!

P.S. It’s a great day to buy my cookbook Holy Sweet!

Banana Split Sprinkle Muffins

Ingredients

  • 8 oz. unsalted butter, at room temperature
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract (I used Rodelle)
  • 1 large banana, ripe
  • 2 large eggs
  • ¾ tsp. baking soda
  • ¾ tsp. baking powder
  • Pinch of salt
  • 2 and ¼ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 and ¼ cup sour cream
  • ¼ cup chopped nuts (I did walnuts)
  • ¼ cup chopped dried banana chips
  • ¾ cup milk chocolate chips
  • ¼ cup chopped dried strawberries
  • About ½ cup sprinkles
  • 16 maraschino cherries

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350F.
  2. Using a stand mixer with a paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy about 3 minutes.
  3. Add banana and beat again.
  4. Add in the vanilla.
  5. Add the eggs one at a time and mix until each is incorporated.
  6. In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  7. Add the flour mixture and the sour cream alternately to the egg-butter mixture in the additions.
  8. Start with the flour and end with the flour.
  9. Scrape the bowl occasionally.
  10. Fold in all but the sprinkles and maraschino cherries into the batter.
  11. Try to distribute as evenly as possible.
  12. Portion the muffin batter into greased tins (I use an ice cream scoop).
  13. Put a cherry on top of each one.
  14. Then sprinkle about 1 tsp. of sprinkles per muffin.
  15. Depending on the size of your tins, you should get about 12 to 14 muffins.
  16. Bake them for approx. 20 minutes or until a wooden skewer inserted comes out clean.

  7. I like that it looks and works so much better on my iPad.

    And I just happen to have a ripe banana laying around so this is going to need to be made.

  12. Can I love 2 things??
    1) The logo! It’s perfect
    2) The name.. it’s clever…and we bought a boat several months ago and it was named Sweet Pea. I loved the name, lobbied to keep it, but we changed it to FREEDOM… the name we have given all of our boats. Anyway, your new blog name reminds me of it.

  17. Oh, these muffins look super fun.

    I love so much about the new design. I love the colors they make me happy. I love the new name. The logo is super cute. I love the mobile version on my phone. I like the categories down at the bottom. I like the Instagram feed especially because for some reason I thought your Instagram was private so I’m glad that it’s not anymore.

  24. Loving your new site. It looks so bright and fun. I know I’m not in the US but would love to nominate someone for the competition on my behalf and that person is my friend Beth in Kentucky. She and I are always sharing recipes.
    Pinning this recipe for later – it sounds delicious. I’m all about multiple layers of flavours.

  31. I like the deep orange of the title in the logo and the bar that runs along the top – it really pops. I think the logo also represents who you are and your interests very well. When I first saw it, I checked whether it had something to represent your love of hockey – and yup, it’s there. 🙂
