My Flog for July 5 + A Great Banana Muffin Recipe

It was a hot day off - and I didn't accomplish much. Sort of started to clean our bedroom, I'll probably finish it before we move in late September, who knows?
  • Breakie - Honey Nut Cheerios w/milk, coffee
  • Lunch - Grapes, yogurt with cherries on the bottom! Yummy!
  • Dinner - Boneless chicken breast, veggies, fresh pineapple
  • Snacks - Diet Pepsi, little tiny piece of Rhubarb Upside Down Cake
Back to work tomorrow - four hot days in my future. Hope I can find the fan.

Add a fantastically delicious banana muffin to the snacks. You never thought I'd make them and not eat at least one, did you? Well, actually I shared one with Tanner. They also pass Neil's taste test, which means I should hide some away or there may not be any left for me to cheat with tomorrow.

Here's the recipe - I found it online, and I tweaked it a wee bit. Watch them though - some of mine burned a bit on the bottom, even though they just looked fine on top. And here's a hint: leave some muffin tin holes with no batter, and add some water instead. Nice moist muffins~

Banana Muffins (makes `18 big muffins)
6 or 7 bananas, mashed (the more rotten the better)
2/3 cup white sugar
2/3 cup brown sugar
2 slightly beaten eggs
2/3 cup melted margarine or butter (I used Becel - it was so hot in the kitchen it was virtually melted anyway)
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
3 cups flour
Mix the mashed banana, sugar, egg and margarine together. Set aside. In a separate bowl, mix together baking soda, baking powder, salt and flour. Mix wet and dry ingredients all together! Pour into greased muffin tins, and bake in 350 degrees F oven for approximately 20 minutes. Enjoy!
