Notes

To help ripen bananas that are not quite brown enough, place them in a brown paper bag and close loosely.
You can also brown bananas by placing them on a baking sheet and putting them in an oven at 300 degrees for 40 minutes. Once the skin is black, they are browned and ready to be used in this banana bread muffin recipe.
