Here's a couple of muffin recipes, submitted by my mom. Actually, one was a banana bread recipe that I made into muffins instead (just my preference, since I can eat one and freeze the others for later... but a loaf of banana bread? No control.). But you - make either of these recipes as you please - loaves, muffins - whatever! For the banana bread recipe, my mom uses the tried-and-true recipe from the 1967 edition of the "Better Homes and Gardens New Cook Book" - which she purchased while she was in college simply because it included this "exotic" banana bread recipe ("When I started making it," she said, "bananas were scare in this Utah desert. You actually had to buy and store them on purpose if you were going to make the bread!"). As for the lemon poppy seed muffin recipe, I'm not sure where that recipe originated, but it's a semi-homemade recipe that my mom has perfected. The muffins are delicious and moist and lemony and fantastic. Sorry I don't have a picture, but I'd about had my quota of baking with the banana bread recipe!
