Method

1. Heat the oven to 175°C (350°F) and line 8 holes of a standard 12-cup muffin pan. Mash the bananas and beat in the egg, oil and date syrup.
2. Fold in the flour, baking powder, cinnamon and two thirds of the sesame, stopping the moment the flour disappears.
3. Spoon into the cases, scatter the rest of the sesame on top and bake 18-20 minutes, until a skewer comes out with moist crumbs. Cool 5 minutes in the pan.
