Click the above picture to enlarge but don't lick your screen !

10 ingredients are all you need.

 Lightly grease your muffin pans. This recipe makes 10 but I always grease 12 just in case one day I can squeeze 2 extra muffins out of this recipe. 

   This sad little over ripe banana was begging to be eaten.

 I have just the recipe to make a banana happy !

   Mix your flour, baking powder, baking soda & salt together.

   In a separate bowl mix together your 3 bananas.

1 egg

slightly beaten

Add white sugar & melted butter

Mix together

I like it so that the bananas
 are still slightly lumpy.

Add this wet mixture
 to the dry mixture.

Fold the
 wet & dry mixtures together.

Just until moistened,
 do not over mix.

10 muffin cups filled.

Fill each cup approximately 3/4 full.

In a small bowl mix together room temp butter, flour, brown sugar and cinnamon.

Cut the mixture together until until crumbly.

Top each muffin with this crumbly sweet goodness.

This one is for Mrs Hughs, my grade 9 Home Economics teacher. Because she told us to, I always put water in any empty tins. I think the purpose is to regulate the temperature of the pan, but I really have no idea.

Now bake these bits of banana heaven at 375 degrees for 18-20 minutes.

Is this what you've been waiting for?

Don't they look delightful? Heavenly? Delicious?
Look at those crusty little sugar bits.....yummmm

I LOVE to bake but I'm not a lover of baked goods except..... well....
anyways I usually let these cool about 2.5 minutes. This is just enough time so that I don't burn the skin off my finger tips removing one from the pan. Then I indulge with a pat of butter that melts almost instantly.
I'm sure you have more will power than I.

So next time you have over ripe bananas sitting on the counter calling your name, you know what to do !
