Yogurt Banana Muffins

Submitted by jackieblue

"These are a delicious, easy way to use up those bananas that are on the way out. My children love these. The yogurt helps to make them moist. You can freeze these if you like. I have also used mini-loaf pans and baked for about 35 minutes."

Very nice muffins - a hit with young and old in our house! I cut down the sugar to one cup as I don't have a sweet tooth at all. Recipe made 24 mini and 6 large muffins - thank you for sharing.

Very tasty recipe. I made a banana bread instead of muffins; I used a 9x5 loaf pan & baked at 350 for about 65 minutes. The vanilla yogurt is a good idea. Thanks!
