Feeling especially lazy on a Saturday, I just couldn't bring myself to gear up into full baking mode. Besides, who am I kidding? I know fully well that one muffin could easily turn into two and sadly, even three (head hung in shame here). The only sensible thing to do was to make a single lonely muffin to feed the need!
So, not only is this recipe perfect for your own personal coffee klatch moment, it's also great for your kids who may want a little after school treat.

Such a cute little quick treat just for little ol' you!
Helpful Hint:
Mix your dry ingredients in individual little baggies and when you have ripe bananas, mash and separate into 2 T portions, wrap in cling film and store in freezer until needed. When you're hankering for a muffin, voila! Grab a baggie of your dry stuff and your banana, add remaining ingredients. Wow! An even super amped fast muffin!
