Banana Bread Muffins

These simple muffins are a great breakfast treat or an easy snack. Make sure your bananas are super ripe: the blacker the better!

Ingredients

3 or 4 ripe bananas
1/3 C. melted butter
1 C. sugar
Raisins and/or nuts (optional)
1 egg beaten
1 tsp. vanilla
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. baking soda
Pinch of salt
1 1/2 C. flour

Directions

In a large bowl, smash bananas. Mix all the ingredients in, adding the flour last. Mix together with a fork. Pour mixture into a greased 4x8 loaf pan (muffin pan will do as well).

Cook at 350 degrees for 45 minutes or until desired color.
