Nikki's Banana Bread Muffins- Healthy

Total Time: 55 mins Preparation Time: 10 mins Cook Time: 45 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 6
• 4 ripe bananas
• 1/4 cup melted butter
• 1 egg, beaten
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 pinch salt
• 1 1/2 cups flour
• 2 tablespoons ground flax seed meal (optional)
• 1/4-1/2 cup mini chocolate chip (optional)

Recipe

• 1 preheat oven to 350.
• 2 i use my kitchenaid for this -mix melted butter with bananas.
• 3 add egg, vanilla, baking soda, salt, and flax seed meal and mix well.
• 4 add flour and the chocolate chips last.
• 5 pour into sprayed muffin tins, (i use a large muffin tin and this recipe yields 6 large muffins).
• 6 bake 45 mins or until a tooth pick comes out clean (the 45 mins is for the large muffins).
• 7 please note: i always add the flax seed meal and i try to remember the chocolate chips because it just gives them a little something extra (they tent to taste a little dry without the chocolate chips). i have omitted the sugar completely since i use very ripe bananas (if you want to add sugar it is 1 cup that i started with and then went to 1/2 cup and then reduced to none). i am slowly reducing the butter in this recipe, recently i reduced it to 2 tablespoons per batch. i always double if not triple this recipe!
