a lot of time i never bake/cook things as long as the recipe suggests. i always like things underdone. however, in this case, i like banana bread to be 'done.' the tops end up being almost crunchy, sweet goodness. so good.

banana bread muffins + printable version
-- original recipe from all recipes
3 or 4 ripe bananas, mashed
1/3 c butter, melted
1 c sugar
1 egg, beaten
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp baking soda
pinch of salt
1 1/2 c flour
preheat oven to 350. line 12 - 16 cupcake tins with paper liners. i always end up with a different amount of muffins every time i make these. it just depends on how big your bananas are or how many you use. like today, i only had two medium size bananas and it made about 13 muffins, filled 2/3 of the way. or spray with non-stick spray.
in a large mixing bowl, mix melted butter into mashed bananas. mix in sugar, egg, and vanilla.
sprinkle baking soda & salt over banana mixture. mix to combine. add flour in last. mix until just combined.
add about 2 Tbsp of batter to each liner. or about 2/3 full. bake for 18-20 minutes. like i said earlier, i like them a little dark so i end up closer to 20 minutes.

**if you want to bake this as a loaf, the original directions say to pour mixture into a buttered 4 x 8 inch loaf pan and bake for 1 hour at 350. cool on rack and remove pan to slice. like i said, i never have much luck with banana bread loaves. but i'm sure you won't have any problems!
