Instructions for the night before:

In the morning:

  • Combine the sugar, bananas, and egg: mixing very well.
  • Stir in the rest of the ingredients.
  • Add the overnight sponge and mix everything together gently until well combined.
  • Spoon into muffin tin, about 3/4 of the way full.

Notes

  • For naturally sweetened, don't add sugar, and let the bananas be the sweetener. 
  • For lightly sweetened, add 1/4 cup of sugar. 
  • For regular sweetened, add 1/2 cup of sugar. 
  • The sponge can be made several days in advance.
  • This recipe doubles very well!
