Banana Muffins

Source: An interpretation of a standard from grandma's recipe box.

Servings: Makes around a dozen muffins

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Instructions: Preheat oven to 350F and prep a muffin pan with cooking spray. In a stand mixer, cream sugar into butter on medium-high speed for two or three minutes. Add vanilla and eggs and beat another 2 minutes. Reduce speed to stir, add bananas (no need to mash; the mixer does it) and buttermilk. When integrated, add salt, baking soda, cardamom and flour. When just mixed, scrape down the bowl and stir in the chocolate and nuts. Dish 1/4 cup (usually enough to just fill the muffin cup) into each well. Bake for 35-45 minutes, or until golden brown. Let rest in pan about 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool.

Notes: These will freeze really swell after completely cooled. To bring them back to life, nuke them for a few (15-20) seconds to take the chill off & finish for 10 minutes in a 350F (toaster) oven.
