I love muffins. As we ate these yesterday, I declared that muffins are the perfect breakfast food: filling, but not heavy; tasty, but not sugar-y sweet. This recipe was found in desperation as I hoped to use over-ripe bananas instead of throwing them out. It was a Saturday morning, and I often make some actual breakfast food on Saturdays, rather than the usual cereal or oatmeal. This recipe is not difficult, and the results are wonderful. The muffins are lighter in texture than banana bread, but taste very similar.

1/3 cup packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
