BANANA MUFFIN

BANANA MUFFIN image

For the best banana flavor, make sure to use very ripe bananas. Their peels should be covered with dark brown, if not black speckles. If the bananas are not ripe enough, these will taste no better than potato muffins. Perfect for breakfast or brunch or any time of the day and nite
