This recipe was given to me by my friend Doris many years ago, and if I had a dollar for every one of these muffins that I baked over the years for school lunches, I would be living by a beach in Costa Rica by now. This has always been, and still is, our boys’ favorite muffin and when my newly married son asked for the recipe, I knew it was time to put it on the website.  If you’re one of the rare people that doesn’t have a few overripe bananas lounging on your kitchen counter, you can always buy our “baking bananas”  (slightly overripe bananas at a reduced price) at the market.
