Banana Muffins

My kids love these and are great helpers in the kitchen while baking them.  Such a simple and very yummy recipe.  They are super moist and we often finish the whole batch in one day!

1 1/4 cups sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened
2 eggs
1 1/2 cup mashed very ripe bananas (3 medium)
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt

Beat sugar and butter.  Add eggs and beat for another 4 minutes until mixture is light and fluffy.  Add bananas, milk, and vanilla; beat until smooth.  Add flour, baking soda and salt just until moistened.  Divide batter into muffin tins or loaf pans.  Bake at 350 for 15 minutes (muffins) or 1 hour (for loaf pans).  Be sure to watch and adjust time if baking too quickly.
