Current song, “07.11.11” by Jose Gonzalez.
I am on a turmeric kick. Although, that’s nothing short of the usual with me. Turmeric has such a mild flavor and it’s so powerfully packed with healing powers that why not add it to anything and everything?
Golden Milk.
Turmeric in oatmeal, overnight oats, chia seed pudding, waffles, pancakes, muffins…
Tea.
Smoothies.
Curry.
Soups & stews.
Ice Cream, Nice-cream.
You name it. It’s sure to be done and taste really good.
Which brings me to these cute little nuggets of scrumptiousness. And baking them mini size was an epiphany I had at one of the most recent yoga retreats I catered on the North Shore.
They are soft and sweet from banana… and some added sugar, of course, and kind of look like they have little red lava flows in them from the turmeric. Can anyone tell me why the turmeric turns red when baked in the oven? It doesn’t usually happen with other baked goods so presume it’s some kind of reaction with the banana. But in any case, it looks really cool.
And the best part of this recipe – you can bake this as a cake, a loaf, large muffins, medium size muffins, mini muffins, as a square or just about any shape. Just be sure to check your baking times as they will vary with whatever shape or size you see fit to bake that day.
I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as many other’s have. It’s been a gem of a recipe used for my wholesale accounts for bakeries here on Oahu. And for the fortunate you, you now get to have the recipe.
Happy baking, friend.
