This is a great recipe for all banana lovers. It's really easy, and also very variable. I add chocolate, walnuts, oats, or whatever I have lying around and it always comes out good. But probably the best thing about this muffin is its texture. It's not really stiff like some muffins, but soft and light.

SERVES 12 , 12 muffins (change servings and units)

Ingredients

2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup chocolate chips or walnuts or oats
1/2 cup butter
3/4 cup sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup ripe banana, mashed

Directions

1
In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, and salt. Then stir in your cup of chocolate chips, walnuts, etc.
2
In a separate bowl cream together the butter and sugar. Add the eggs one at a time, and don't forget the vanilla!
3
Add the mashed bananas and wet mixture to the dry mixture, stirring until moist but lumpy.
4
Fill 12 prepared muffin cups (greased or paper cups) 3/4 full of batter. For a special touch, I sometimes sprinkle oats on top.
5
Bake at 350F for about 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.

The perfect muffin recipe. Will keep this (I used 1/2 WWheat flour/ 1/2 White) and 1 c of oats, 1/2 c walnuts. Very good.

I loved these! Although I must say that the way I made them didn't really please any of us--I added only 1/2 c chocolate chips (all that was left in the bag), and DS didn't like them (he dislikes banana, so they weren't chocolatey enough to disguise it). I did like them okay with the chocolate, but I LOVED the bites without chips. Next time I'll make them just for me, without any chips. The banana flavor really shone, and they had a perfect texture--nice and moist, with just a hint of sugary crunchiness on the top. Thanks so much for posting, Lt. Ducky!
