It’s the “Icing on the Muffin” that matters today!
Banana Muffins with Banana Icing. This Banana Icing reminds me of banana popsicles oh a hot summer day or great banana taffy. I bought banana extract a while ago and really hadn’t used it much. Today was certainly the day to get it out.
I used this recipe for the Muffins and baked them at 350 for 20 minutes it made 24 muffins.
Banana Icing
2 cups powdered sugar
1 tablespoon corn syrup
2 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon banana extract
3 drops Egg Yellow Americolor food coloring
Mix all ingredients together until smooth if it’s too thick add a few drop more water until it’s the consistency you like, if the icing is too thin add more powdered sugar.
The muffins tasted delicious, I’m convinced it’s the buttermilk!

March 6, 2012 at 5:22 pmI think I would pick these banana muffins over chocolate, as much as I love the latter, too. There’s just something about banana in sweets–so good!
