Banana Trail Mix Muffins

I saw this recipe and just had to make it. They are really good but I added some ingredients that weren't in my trail mix. I took out the chocolate pieces, added some dried cranberries, extra pecans and almonds (my trail mix had various seeds, peanuts and raisins).

1 3/4 c. flour
2/3 c. sugar
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. baking soda
1 c. mashed banana (about 2 large)
1/3 c. butter, melted
2 eggs
1 1/2 c. trail mix

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line muffin pan with paper cups of spray with cooking spray. In a bowl, mix together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda.
2. Combine banana, butter and eggs in medium bowl. Beat into dry ingredients at medium speed until combined. Stir in trail mix until well-blended and spoon into muffin cups.
3. Bake 20-25 minutes or until toothpick inserted into center comes out clean. Cool in pan for 10 minutes. Remove from pan and cool completely on wire rack.

Makes 12-14 muffins.

NOTE: Recipe notes that if your trail mix does not have chocolate pieces to add 1/4 c. chocolate chips. However, I chose to take out our chocolate pieces and replace them with dried cranberries. This is strictly a personal choice.
