Mark's Notes:

The original recipe called for 3/4 cup brown sugar.  I changed this to 3/4 cup regular sugar.  If using brown sugar then you don't need the 1/4 teaspoon baking soda.

We had to buy extra large liners for the larger muffin pan.  You can also grease the muffin pan with cooking oil if you do not have muffin liners.

Mark’s Story: 

For 4H, Miriam wanted to make Chocolate Chip Banana Muffins.  I found a Martha Stewart recipe.  We made 6 large muffins rather than 12 smaller muffins.  Miriam did all the work making them.  These were some of the best muffins I have ever had.  I’m not saying this because my daughter made this.  I’m saying this because these were far better than anything I could buy at a bakery.  They were most excellent.  So, I hope you try this recipe.  Enjoy.  Remember Jesus loves you!!
