My mom made these pretty regularly when I was growing up. And I love them.<\/p>\n

They are fast, easy, and an excellent way to use up overripe bananas. I prefer them with nuts (chopped pecans), but they are good without nuts too.<\/p>\n

Banana Nut Muffins<\/strong><\/p>\n

1 cup flour
\n1\/2 cup sugar
\n2 1\/2 t. baking powder
\n1\/2 t. salt
\n1\/4 t. baking soda
\n3\/4 cup oats
\n1 egg, beaten
\n3 T. melted margarine
\n1\/2 cup milk
\n1\/2 cup mashed ripe banana
\n1\/3 cup chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans) – optional<\/p>\n

Mix together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda. Stir in oats.<\/p>\n

Add beaten egg, margarine, milk, bananas and nuts. Stir only until dry ingredients are moistened.<\/p>\n

Fill lined muffin cups 2\/3 full. Bake at 400 degrees for approx. 20 minutes.<\/p>\n

Yield: 1 dozen.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

They are good just as they are, even when they’re cold. But they are fabulous warmed with butter. They are also great served as a compliment to oatmeal or cream of wheat. Yum!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
