Waste Not

Good morning everyone.
I wish you could be here for banana, pecan muffins and some coffee.
I've been trying harder to waste less by recycling, repurposing and sharing the overflow.
Last night I used up the too ripe bananas and made some wonderful muffins.
I used a recipe from an old vintage cookbook and changed it up a bit.
Very yummy and no wasted bananas this week.
This recipe made 12 muffins and 2 small loaves or 18 muffins.




BANANA PECAN MUFFINS

2 1/2 cups flour
4 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
2/3 cup shortening
1 1/3 cup sugar
4 eggs well beaten
2 cups mashed bananas
1 cup chopped pecans

Cream shortening and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs and beat well. Add flour mixture alternately with mashed bananas, beating until smooth.
Add pecans.
Fill muffin cups 2/3 full.
Bake at 350 for 30 minutes
Sprinkle tops with powdered sugar.
Makes about 18 muffins.
