Classic Banana Muffins

 I have been trying a lot of muffin recipes lately, just because they are so easy to make, and are also very versatile and can be made healthy by using white whole wheat flour. The Kids love taking this to school as part of their lunch instead of the routine peanut butter and jelly sandwich. There are also a lot of end of the year parties coming along at the school, so I think some healthy vegetarian cupcake recipes will be coming your way soon! I'm so excited to show you some awesome cupcake decorating tips as well.

Ingredients:
2 cups flour*
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup oil
3 ripe bananas
1/2 tsp vanilla extract.

*I used white whole wheat flour

1. Combine flour, baking soda, and salt together and set aside.
2. Mash bananas to a pulp and mix in sugar, oil, and vanilla extract.
3. slowly incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients to get a tough, but smooth dough.
4. Scoop batter into muffin pan or loaf pan (for banana bread), bake at 350 F for 25 min or until a toothpick comes out clean.
5. Cool, serve, and enjoy!
