Ingredients
  • 3 Bananas, medium-large
  • 1 cup Low-fat plain yogurt
  • 1/2 cup Packed brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup Vegetable oil
  • 1 2/3 cup All-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoon Baking soda
  • 1/2 cup Walnuts, chopped
Directions
  1. 1
    Preheat the oven to 400&# 194;°F (200ðC). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with paper liners.
  2. 2
    Peel the bananas and place them in a large mixing bowl. Using a fork, mash the bananas until smooth. Measure to ensure you have approximately 1 cup of mashed banana.
  3. 3
    Add the yogurt, brown sugar, and vegetable oil to the mashed bananas. Stir with the fork until the mixture is well combined and smooth.
  4. 4
    In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and baking soda.
  5. 5
    Pour the dry flour mixture into the wet banana mixture. Add the chopped walnuts.
  6. 6
    Gently stir the ingredients together just until they are combined. The batter may be slightly lumpy; do not overmix.
  7. 7
    Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
  8. 8
    Bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. 9
    Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the pan on a wire rack for 5 minutes.
  10. 10
    Remove the muffins from the pan and let them cool completely on the rack before serving.
