Going Bananas!!!

This is our banana hanger.
Adam thought it was pretty much the greatest invention at the time he bought it. Adam enjoys buying bananas for it, but often tends to forget about eating them, hence the sad, lonely overly-ripe brown one laying there. He's lonely because I decided to rescue three of his friends before they could completely spoil. I contemplated using the Gross Women's prize winning, and no fail banana nut bread recipe. But I didn't have any nuts..... So I perused the Internet and found Banana Crumb Muffins.

We only have a mini-muffin pan, thanks to Michele's help from Adam's Christmas Cookie Exchange at work (He was such a hit with the ladies). So I reduced the time in the oven to 13 minutes. Adam and I snuck one when they first came out of the oven. Mmmmm, They were DE-LISH!!!!! The base recipe makes 48 mini's. If I do say so myself, I think I might have found some competition to the afformentioned banana nut bread. But don't tell Carol or Cindy that,or I might not get invited to Thanksgiving next year if they find out.
On a side note, I found it redundant for me to post the entire recipes I try, especially since I include the link to the websites that I found them on. So, I left one extra step for you readers.

Mini Muffins!! What a great idea---one I am definately going to use. That was one sad looking banana that you left behind. I may make these for next weekend!!

Next time you plan to come home let me know the week before so I can get some bananas "ready"! Rather bake them when you're here! No fun doing it alone! Besides I would probably eat way too many! May need to borrow the mini pan too!
