Easy Banana Muffins

Use up over-ripe bananas with this easy recipe.

1/2 Cup Butter

1 Cup Sugar

3 Bananas, very ripe, mashed

2 Eggs

2 Cups Flour

1 tsp Baking Soda

1/2 - 3/4 Cup Walnuts, half or large pieces

Cupcake paper liners 

1. Cream the butter in a large bowl. Add the sugar and mix well.

2. Add the eggs to the batter and mix well.

3. Add the mashed bananas to the batter and mix well.

4. Sift the the baking soda and add to 1/2 a cup of flour. Stir the flour/baking soda into the batter.

5. Add 1/2 cup of flour into the batter and stir to incorporate. Repeat until all of the flour has been incorporated into the batter. Do not over-stir or the muffins will be tough.

6. Place the cupcake liners into the cups of the muffin pan. Scoop the batter evenly into each liner.

7. Add the walnuts over the top of each muffin.

8. Bake in a pre-heated oven at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Test for doneness with a toothpick.

Tip: I recommend using an ice cream scoop with a spring hinge to scoop the batter into the muffin cups.
