The first time I made these I used muffin cups. It stuck very bad, next time I will just grease the pan to avoid the stick.

These are so good, they taste just like banana bread! You could even make banana bread instead of banana muffins with the recipe!

I am in LOVE with these, as a snack, in the morning, in the afternoon even at dinner! I put the batch in the freezer, when warming up I put mine in the microwave for 30 seconds on defrost. Then I top it with a little calorie free spray butter! This is worth trying! It taste amazing!

Made these today with a slight modification - instead of the egg, I used 1/4 cup of egg beaters, and I used a whole cup of flour instead of the mixed flour the OP used. The results are really delicious! Total calories per muffin: 79!
