This recipe makes about 48 mini muffins.

Wet Ingredients:

3 or 4 ripe bananas (if you do not use ripe bananas, your muffins will taste weird)

1 tsp of vanilla

1/4 cup (half a stick) of butter, softened

1/4 cup brown sugar

1 cup applesauce (I like to use cinnamon applesauce)

Dry Ingredients:

1 and 1/4 cups of flour

2 tsp baking powder

1 tsp baking soda

A dash of cinnamon

A dash of salt

Additional Ingredients, if Desired:

Chopped Pecans

Chopped Walnuts

Nutmeg

Chopped Apples

- Cream butter and brown sugar in a large mixing bowl until well blended.

- Stir in vanilla, ripe bananas, and applesauce.

- Continue stirring. Your batter should be well blended, but not perfectly smooth. Lumps are okay.

- Using a whisk, sift your dry ingredients in a separate mixing bowl.

- Combine your dry ingredients with your wet ingredients, and stir well. If you wish to use additional ingredients, now is the time to add them into the batter.

- Pour batter into greased or floured mini muffin cups or trays.

- Bake at 325 degrees for 10-12 minutes, checking every 5 minutes. Muffins are done when a fork or toothpick comes out clean.

- Remove muffins from tray, and allow to cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes (if you can wait that long).

Enjoy your banana applesauce muffins!
