Browning Bananas

The other day I had bananas that were going brown 6 to be exact and I thought to me self how can I use these before they are gone.....Banana bread is the first thing that comes to mind (but that is ALOT of banana bread) I decided to make one batch anyway and I make muffins instead of bread

@;-- preheat oven 350 degrees

2 Bananas
1/2 c Butter
1 1/2 c Flour
3/4 c Sugar
2 Eggs
1/4 c Milk
2 t Lemon Juice
1 t Baking Soda
1/2 t Salt
1 c Chocolate chips and/or nuts

this recipe can be make in the mixer or the food processor

mix bananas and butter until well mixed (fp:20 sec)
add flour, sugar, eggs, milk, lemon juice, baking soda, and salt
mix (fp:10 sec.) scrape down and add chocolate chips (do not add the chocolate if you are making muffins)
pour in greased and sugared loaf pan.
Bake 50-55 Min. (toothpick test)
cool 15 min. turn out on cooling rack

when making muffins add the chocolate chip to the individual cups :) cook 20 min :)
