Tuesday...




It's not quite the dreaded Monday, not quite hump-day Wednesday...it's Tuesday.  Boring old, do nothing, just sitting at work, don't want to get out of bed, raining because it can Tuesday.  


So in honor of this bleak, grim, rainy, good-for-only-staying-inside-Tuesday I present you with a recipe for Banana Crumb Muffins!! NOM NOM NOM!!






Ingredients
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 bananas, mashed
3/4 cup white sugar
1 egg, lightly beaten
1/3 cup butter, melted
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon butter
Directions
-Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). 

-Line muffin tin with muffin papers. (Makes about 10-16 muffins...depending on size)
-In a large bowl, mix together 1 1/2 cups flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. 

-In another bowl, beat together bananas, sugar, egg and melted butter. 
-Stir the banana mixture into the flour mixture. 
-Spoon batter into prepared muffin cups. 


-In a small bowl, mix together brown sugar, 2 tablespoons flour and cinnamon. 
-Cut in 1 tablespoon butter until mixture resembles chunky cornmeal. Sprinkle topping over muffins.

-Bake in preheated oven for 18 to 20 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.

Cupcake Fever!!

I blame this all on The Katie Chronicles, but lately I have an obsession with cupcakes!!!

Funny thing is - I don't like cupcakes that much!  I'll have one every once in a while but I just make them because they're fun and pretty.  This weekend I had a BBQ/bonfire to attend.  I decided I would bring some of Katie's delicious margarita cupcakes.

It was really hot, and my slime green icing started to melt BUT they turned out deliciously.  So good, in fact, that I made more!! I'm hoping to move on to pink lemonade cupcakes next.
