Banana Muffins


I had 3 mushy bananas sitting on my counter this afternoon. I don't much like eating raw bananas when they've gotten to the mushy stage. I was on a banana kick for a while there but I must have forgotten to eat them and once they're past they're prime they're not so appetizing anymore, so I decided to make some muffins.

Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 large bananas, mashed
3/4 cup white sugar
1 egg
1/3 cup butter, melted (p.s. I didn't melt it and it was fine)

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Coat muffin pans with non-stick spray, or use paper liners, or silicone muffin cups.

Combine bananas, sugar, egg, and melted butter in a large bowl. Then add in the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix until smooth. Scoop into muffin pans.

Bake in preheated oven. Bake mini muffins for 10 to 15 minutes, and large muffins for 25 to 30 minutes. Muffins will spring back when lightly tapped.

LoseIt calculates the calories at 187 per muffin if you make 12 muffins from this recipe.

Update:
Check them out with fresh blueberries dropped into the top after filling the muffin cups! Yum!
