I'm back on the net since yesterday and can't believe how disconnected I felt from the rest of the world without it. Whatever did I do before the days of the world wide web?
I christened my oven by baking Banana Bread Muffins when the bananas in my fruit bowl had gone past their 'pretty enough to eat' stage. As you can see from the pictures I'm still getting used to my new oven and the muffins turned out a little dark, but they were good nevertheless.
I used a recipe from Recipezaar, which you can find here. It was the first banana bread recipe I ever tried and at the time I loved it. Since then this Banana Bread recipe has become my favourite though. I did everything as stated, apart from making muffins rather than a loaf, so I reduced the cooking time to about 20 minutes. Oh, and I topped them with peanut butter chips.
I know I only just got back online, but I'll be off again for another few weeks as I'm going camping to Ireland on Sunday. Once I'm back I will get back to looking after this blog and reading all yours properly though. Promised!

Camping sounds like a lot of fun. These muffins look perfect -- they belong in a bakery window :D.
I tagged you for a music meme on my blog :).
They look great - I know what you mean about getting used to new ovens - Im still trying to get used to mine!! Out of interest where did you get the peanut butter chips from, I can't find anything like that in my area (Cornwall)
Thanks Sophie, I'll try and remember the meme when I get back from my trip.
Beth, thanks. I bought the peanut butter crisps in the US, but you could order them from www.skyco.uk.com.
We've actually been having a hard time going through all of our bananas lately - this would be a great way to use them up! I hope you have a great time in Ireland!
Glad to see you back Sylvie - I've missed you!
Love those muffins. Have a great time camping. Jan x

Glad to see you are settling in to your new home. The muffins look like a great way to christen the oven!
Great looking muffins Sylvie! I hope that you have a lovely time in Ireland!
Lovely to see you back Sylvie. Do have a great time camping and take lots of pics.
My DH loves banana nut muffins, his second favorite to blueberry muffins.
'dark' is just added flavour... ;-)
A great way to christen your new oven and home!
Glad to see you Sylvie, always come to see you again!!! Have a nice camping!! we wait for you. Love this muffins recipe,xxxGloria
Ooh, dark or not these look so yummy. They look really fluffy and light- so often my muffins collapse in on themselves and have little craters in the centre. And I love the idea of putting peanut butter chips with the banana!
Thanks as always for a great post!

Take care
Chris

Hi Sylvie, congrats on your move and I know just what it feels like to be off line for a while after a month away myself. So pleased to see you back and boy don't those muffins look amazing *any chance of passing one over please?* *giggle*...

Sylvie, you've been tagged. Drop by my blog to see the rules. :-)
I'm new here, just browsing. Everything looks so good. I am definitely going to try that slaw recipe soon. I don't care for Mayo, so I'm alway son the lookout for a good potato salad and coleslaw recipe without it. Thanks!
