Basic Banana Nut Muffins Make 12 muffins
Just like banana nut bread, these muffins have a lot of flavor to
spare. They are so easy to make and really ripe bananas take them
to the next level.
Ingredients
• 1 egg
• 2 Tbsp milk
• ¼ cup sugar
• 1 cup mashed ripe bananas (2 medium)
• 2 Tbsp butter, melted and cooled
• 2 cups baking mix (See our recipe or use Bisquick)
• ¼ cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
Heat oven to 400°F. You will need a greased (bottoms only) 12-cup muffin pan.
Instructions
1. In a medium bowl, beat egg; stir in remaining ingredients in the order
1
listed, just until moistened.
2. Scoop batter into the prepared pan, dividing evenly. Bake until golden
brown, 16 minutes.

Recipes are like stories; they can change from person to person. Everyone has their idea of how a recipe should be, even
though it may have changed from the original. We will never know the true author of the original recipe, regardless of
what some may say. That's why I go back and look through the oldest cookbooks that I can find. Sometimes it's not the
recipe in the books that I find, but the tiny pieces of handwritten recipes and newspaper articles that are stuck within
the pages. That's where the real story is, finding those simple Southern recipes. -Mac
