Ingredients

2 medium bananas very ripe
0.75 cup granulated sugar
0.33 cup shortening
1 large egg
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
0.5 tsp baking soda
1 tsp sea salt
0.5 tsp ground cloves
0.5 tsp ground cinnamon
0.75 cup buttermilk
1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a muffin tin.
Peel the bananas and slice into coins.
In a large bowl, cream together shortening, sugar and sliced bananas.
Add the egg and then continue beating until completely blended.
In a separate bowl, combine dry ingredients.
Add half of the dry ingredients and half the milk and continue blending the batter until smooth.
Add the remaining ingredients and continue blending until smooth.
Add batter evenly to the muffin tin. Bake for 40-50 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center of the muffins comes out clean. Note that you may need to cover the muffins with a sheet of foil after about 30 minutes of baking if the tops start getting too brown.

Notes

This versatile recipe also works well for nanner bread. Just place the batter into a bread pan and bake at 350 degrees for 50-60 minutes. Keep an eye on the top and place a sheet of foil on top if it starts getting too brown.

This versatile recipe also works well for nanner cake! Just place the batter into a 9" by 13" cake pan or casserole dish and bake the same as the muffins. Top with your favorite frosting.
