Blueberry-Banana Muffins With Crumb Topping

I just found this recipe on the internet but, it was really yummy and did not call for any eggs. 

  • 3 ripe bananas
  • 1/4 cup oil
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 1 tsp. baking soda
  • 2 1/2 cups flour
  • 3/4 cup fresh or unthawed frozen blueberries
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 4 Tbsp. butter
Preheat oven 350 degrees.  In a medium bowl, mash the bananas, add oil and sugar and mix well.  In a small bowl, sift together the salt, baking soda, and 2 cups of the flour.  Add the dry mixture to the banana mixture and stir by hand until the 2 are combined.  Fold in the blueberries.

Pour the batter into lined muffin pan.  In a small bowl, combine the remaining 1/2 cup of flour, the brown sugar, and the butter.  Stir until the mixture forms coarse crumbs and then sprinkle the crumbs onto the muffins.  Bake the muffins for 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.

Easy Yummy Banana Bread

This is a recipe my Mom gave me from a lady in Tropic. I have added the changes that I do to the side of the ingredients. I have made this a lot and it is easy, fast, and always turns out soooo yummy!

I took the picture on my phone so it's not the best picture...

3 ripe mashed bananas (I usually use 4)
¾ C. butter (I split this in half and use 1/2 butter and 1/2 olive oil)
1 ½ C. sugar
2 eggs will beaten
1 tsp. vanilla
2 C. flour
1 tsp. baking soda
¾ tsp. salt
½ C. buttermilk (I never have buttermilk on hand so I make my own by just putting 1/2 cup of milk in a cup and adding a Tablespoon of white vinegar or lemon juice. Let it sit about 5 min. and then you have buttermilk.)

Cream butter & sugar blend in bananas, eggs, vanilla. Sift flour, soda, salt (all dry) then add this mixture alternatively with the buttermilk. Bake @ 325 for 1 hour.

Easy White Bread

This is from Sister Elison in my Mom's ward. It is the easiest (yummiest) and makes four loaves so we always give a couple away or we end up eating all four in two days and have a carb overload.

Ingredients:

sit until foams
5 c very warm water
2 T dry yeast
1/2 c sugar (I add a little more)

add
2 t salt
1/2 c oil

add
aprx 15 c flour

(I start with 8 heaping cups and then continue to add until dough is firm - usually around 10-11 cups)

Knead well (5 min)

Put in greased pans and let raise until 1 inch above pan. Bake at 350 for 22 min.
