Whenever I find I have lots of ripened bananas, I feel the need to bake muffins. It is my "go to breakfast" with a hot cup of coffee. I like to play with recipes by adding things I love, and leaving out something else. This recipe has no eggs and no sugar, only natural fruit for sweetness! It's my version of a "huge muffin" with texture and flavor!

    Bake about 30-35 minutes, checking to be sure they're golden brown and not sticky on top, and stick a tooth pick in and see if it comes out clean.
