This banana zucchini bread muffin recipe is from my mother-in-law, and it is the only way to get my husband to eat bananas and my kids to eat zucchini. I bake it into muffins because it gets eaten faster than a loaf, but it's great either way.
Ingredients
- 2 over-ripe bananas , mashed
- 1.5 cups white sugar
- 1 cup shredded zucchini
- 1 cup applesauce
- 3 large eggs
- 0.5 cups packed brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 cups oats
Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 36 muffin cups with paper liners.

Mix mashed bananas, white sugar, zucchini, applesauce, eggs, brown sugar, and vanilla together in a large bowl until well combined.

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Cool muffins completely in the tins before removing.

Butternut Squash Soup
This is a thick, rich butternut squash soup with tons of flavor. It's super easy, quick, and a great way to use squash. Season with curry powder, or any of your favorite fall spices. An instant hit at my house!
'Not Nanaimo Bar' Squares
Growing up for some reason we referred to these as 'Oh Henry Squares'. I've no idea why, but I have not served them without people requesting the recipe and rave reviews. I don't know the origin. It's just been passed on through my family.
Ropa Vieja (Cuban Beef)
This Cuban braised beef dish literally translates to 'old clothes,' because apparently some people thought the fall-apart meat and colorful strips of onions and peppers, tangled together, looked like old, tattered clothing. You'll love this dish if you're into big, bold flavors, since there's nothing subtle about the seasoning here. Delicious served with beans, rice, and plantain chips. Garnish with more cilantro.
