Preparation

Step 1

Combine the first 6 ingredients (dry) in a large mixing bowl; set aside.

Mix yogurt, milk, oil, egg, vanilla and mashed bananas together in a smaller bowl until well-combined (wet).

Add wet mixture to the dry mixture, mix until just combined (do not overmix) - lumps are ok.

Now stir in chopped kiwi gently; you may also add chopped nuts if you like.

Bake in a pre-heated oven at 375°F or 180°C for 25 to 30mins (mini muffins take about 20 minutes).
Cool in pan for 10 minutes, then remove and cool thoroughly on wire rack.
