Banana Passionfruit Muffin

I went off early from the office yesterday since I started work real early and had the chance to join the housewives crowd in the wet market. Although we can get most of the foodstuff in the hypermarket, I still like buying from the wet market. It reminds me of my childhood when I used to pester my mum to let me follow her to the market. :)

So, I was strolling around the market and saw this auntie selling passion fruits. “Do you know how to eat this?” she asked. Er…actually I was thinking of using it to bake some muffins and it didn’t cross my mind at all that I want to eat it fresh like that. Haha…ah well, you’re supposed to cut the fruit into half and scoop the flesh if you want to eat it fresh or you can also make juice with it.
Anyway, I bought 3 and when I saw there still some bananas in the fridge, I thought I might as well combine them both! So, this is what you get; banana passion fruit muffins.
The passion fruit’s seeds gave it a crunchy bite and the 2 fruits made the muffins really flavorful! You might want to reduce the bananas as the taste easily overpowers the passion fruit.
