Gluten-Free Banana Muffins (with Peanut Flour)

Because I have some friends who are gluten-intolerant, my eye tends to gravitate towards any products labeled "Gluten-Free." So when I saw peanut flour at Trader Joe's this afternoon, I couldn't resist; that paired with the three overripe bananas in my fruit bowl meant only one thing: banana bread!

Ingredients
2 cups peanut flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
3/4 cup brown sugar
3 eggs, beaten
three mashed overripe bananas

Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line muffin pan or lightly grease the pan.
In a large bowl, combine flour, baking soda and salt. In a separate bowl, cream together butter and brown sugar. Stir in eggs, mashed bananas, and applesauce until well blended. Stir banana mixture into flour mixture; stir just to moisten. Pour batter into prepared pan.

Bake in preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into center of the muffins come out clean. Let muffins cool in pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack.

  1. I know quite a lot of people who can't have wheat or gluten. Somehow, peanut flour has passed me by. I'll look out for it - does it give a yummy peanut taste?

This month the French Winophiles group is looking at affordable wines from Burgundy.  Host Cindy of Grape Experiences wrote: "Burgundy, or Bourgogne, is known for its wines of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir... as well as Aligote, Gamay, Sauvignon, César, Pinot Beurot, Sacy, Melon in lesser quantities. Many of the well-known wines are quite expensive, but there are plenty of values to be found."

You're Invited: Take a (Virtual) Hawaiian Holiday with #FoodNFlix

Fall Break, Oahu, October 2017 For June, I am hosting  Food'N'Flix , the movie-watching, food-making group rallied by Heather of  All Roads Lead to the Kitchen . This week, my older son was supposed to graduate from high school and we were supposed to leave on a family vacation to the Big Island. But, as enter our eleventh week of being sheltered in place to flatten the curve of the coronavirus, all of our summer plans were canceled, including this long-planned graduation trip to Hawaii. Boo. I understand the need to self-isolate. And we are abiding by the social distancing guidelines put in place by our state. But, boo, nonetheless.
