BANANA OATMEAL MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line 12 muffin cups with papers liners.
• Beat sugar and butter with an electric mixer in a large bowl until smooth and creamy. Beat first egg into the butter until completely blended; beat in the vanilla extract with the remaining egg.
• Mix bananas, milk, and allspice together in a separate bowl; stir into the creamed butter mixture. Whisk flour, baking powder, and baking soda together in a separate bowl; slowly stir into banana-butter mixture until batter is just mixed. Fold oats and walnuts into batter. Scoop batter into the muffin cups using a large ice cream scoop.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 25 to 35 minutes.

CORNMEAL-MOLASSES MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Cut parchment paper into twelve 5-by-5-inch squares. Lightly grease the inside of a 12-cup muffin tin. Center a square of parchment paper over 1 of the cups and use your fingers to press the parchment into the cup, so that it sticks to the sides and bottom. Crease the paper as needed to fit and repeat with the remaining parchment (regular muffin liners work just as well but the parchment looks pretty).
• Combine the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, salt and baking soda in a large bowl.
• Whisk together the yogurt, applesauce, molasses, orange zest, eggs and butter in a separate small bowl.
• Fold the wet ingredients into the dry until just combined (don't fret if the batter is lumpy, this means your batter isn't over-mixed).
• Fill each liner almost to the top of the tin (an ice-cream scoop lightly greased with nonstick spray will help). Sprinkle each muffin with the toasted oats.
• Bake, rotating about halfway through, until a toothpick inserted in the muffins comes out clean and the tops are just slightly puffed and spring back when touched, 20 to 24 minutes. Let rest in the hot muffin pan 3 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack and let cool 30 minutes. Store the cooled muffins in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
