Banana Muffins

In college I had several roommates that varied from the slightly delusional to the super crazy along the friends for life type. During my last semester I lived with a set of cousins that I LOVED. For my wedding gift they shared with me their family cookbook. Tucked inside was a recipe for the most delicious banana muffins. I love, love, love them. (the kids really only like the glazed tops – crazy!) The recipe is made with Bisquick. I am not usually a fan and actually only buy the stuff to make these muffins, I prefer the heart healthy version.

Glazed Banana Muffins

2 c. Bisquick
3 T. butter
1/4 c. sugar
1 c. mashed bananas
1 egg

Combine the Bisquick and sugar, add butter and cut in with a pastry blender. Add bananas and egg.

Bake at 400 degrees for 12 minutes. Just until the tops are a tiny bit brown. Place hot muffins on plate and glaze with a mixture of powdered sugar and milk with a drop of vanilla.

Yum, Yum, Yummy!

So I made these and they are great! They remind me of you! But I used this biscuit mix recipe (a whole wheat, homemade version) and they were healthy AND delicious :)

LLL Baking Mix
8 c. whole wheat flour
5 T. baking powder
1 T. salt
1 to 2 cups dry milk powder
1 1/2 cup oil

Combine dry ingredients well in large bowl. Cut in oil with fingers to make fine crumbs. Store in a tightly covered container in the refrigerator. Recipe may be doubled. Can be used in place of commercial biscuit mix in many recipies.
