We love making muffins and have started to experiment by using whatever we have in the fruit bowl at the time. Our latest creation is Passionfruit Banana Muffins that turned out so well and is a great way to use up bananas that are going past their best.

We recently discovered the children’s love of passionfruit and so now often have them at home but baking is a great way to use them if they’ve been sitting around a while.

The passionfruit flavour works so well with the mashed banana, creating a really moist and light bake, perfect for breakfast, afternoon tea or a snack at any time. They’re also great for dessert served with custard!

You will no doubt have most of the equipment you need for this recipe at home already but, in case it helps, here are the things we use to bake these cakes at home:

These are pretty much staples for baking in any home kitchen and once you have them you won’t need to replace them often.
