My husband was about to throw out some over ripe bananas and I told him to hold up! I'll make muffins. I wasn't sure if I could use over ripe bananas, ours were almost all black. They worked out fine. But next time, after a bit of research, I know to peel them and freeze them. Making the bananas easier to use since the peel can be difficult to remove frozen.
This recipe would also make a loaf of bread, the bake time would be approximately 1 hr and 20 minutes. But, I love the individual serving size of the muffins because I can freeze them and add them to a sack lunch.
