2 large free range eggs

2 large very ripe bananas

75g butter, melted and left to cool slightly

125ml semi-skimmed milk

1/2 tsp Asda Extra Special Vanilla Extract

Pre-heat the oven to 190C/170C Fan/Gas 5. Line 10 muffin tray cups with paper muffin cases. Sift the flour, baking powder and mixed spice into a large bowl. Add the bits of bran left in the sieve. Stir in the brown sugar, sunflower seeds and dates

Add the liquid mixture to the flour mixture and stir with a spoon until you have a lumpy mixture. Don’t over mix or you will spoil them.
