What to do with a banana that has had a couple of bites taken out of it and someone doesnt want it anymore? Cut off a few pieces, mash up and make muffins!
I usually dont buy bananas for this exact reason, because I dont eat them, they will go to waste. Today, not sure what made me think to make muffins, but I did, and they are tasty!
*Baker's note - I only used the 2/3 banana that was left-over, I did not use the whole 3 mashed bananas. These have a cupcake like consistency. They also took about 25 minutes, but after 15 mins I would set the timer at 3 minute intervals until toothpick check was clean.
