I've got another lovely recipe for you today...
Banana, brown sugar and pecan muffins, mmmm... (with a cheeky drizzle of maple syrup for good measure)
More mmmm's...
I cant seem to get enough of pecans lately.
Anything with them in, I'm there!
And the combo of banana with them and some maple syrup... droool!
I had a few bananas that had seen better days so rustled these up.
They're super yummy as a breakfast muffin.
Well, to be honest, an anytime muffin really,
but particularly nice for breakfast or elevenses with a cuppa.

* Add the sugar, oats and pecans and mix together

(here's where I added a little drizzle of maple syrup on top before going in the oven)

Well...devour!
