Eating banana muffins

I made some banana muffins which are great as its mostly banana with a little chocolate ;-)

Banana Muffins
(makes 12 muffins)
3 or 4 Large bananas, mashed
1/2 cup white sugar (or 1 cup for the sweet tooth)
1 slightly beaten egg
1/3 cup melted butter
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups flour....or just use self raising flour and put all ingredients in together
Mix the mashed banana, sugar, egg and butter together.
Set aside.
In a separate bowl, mix together baking soda, baking powder, salt and flour.
Mix wet and dry ingredients all together, being careful not to over-stir...you listening Nana?
Pour into greased muffin tins, and bake in 180 oven for approximately 20 minutes.
I thought that I could convince Ara to play in the sandpit for a few minutes while I ate my own muffin and read my homework book from the midwife "Immaculate Deception II" wow stuff!

But no...no sooner I had sat down with my muffin did I have to get back up and pull prickles out of Ara's feet. Ara then discovered another Muffin and the hammock I'd put up in the trees.


Then once the muffin was mangled too much for Mum to even recover it was off to collect the days tomato, some corn for dinner, water the courgettes and think of a curry that Ara might eat too....hummm? Miss you darling and not just for your curry eating skills.
