Here is the recipe for the muffins I brought to Sharon's today to celebrate the gorgeous Aunt Melanie's birthday. And props to me for posting this the SAME day!
4 eggs
1/2 lb butter
5 large bananas
2 cups sugar
4 cups flour
2 teaspoons soda
1 teaspoon salt
Bake at 300 for 75 minutes.
This recipe was given to me by one of my college roommates, Melissa Kirkham. She would make this and freeze it. I think it tastes better frozen!
But today I made it into muffins because I didn't want to wait for an hour and half for it to cook! I was hungry! I think I let them cook about 30 minutes. I just kept checking them until they were browned on top and the toothpick came out clean. I also added about a 1/2 cup of flax seed and quite a few teaspoons of cinnamon. I was thinking later that I should have used whole wheat flour because I'm running low on white flour. It would probably taste the same, that's a quote from my mom so you can trust it.
I only make banana bread when the black bananas in my freezer start multiplying. Yes, I put my over-ripe bananas in my freezer. I think it helps with the moistness of the bread. Is moistness a word??? If not I just pulled a Rachel Ray and invented my own lingo!!!!

Wow!!! I'm so impressed at the quickness and quantity of these posts. I'm not sure if quickness is a word but I was going for alliteration there. Anyways, yay and thank you!
