  2. Blend oil, eggs, vanilla, brown sugar, lemon juice, and sour cream together in a large bowl. Add bananas and blend until bananas are mashed.

  4. Divide batter evenly between 12 paper-lined muffin cups.
  5. Bake in preheated oven for about 18 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from oven and let cool 10 minutes before removing to finish cooling on a wire cooling rack.
  6. While muffins cool, combine icing ingredients and beat with an electric mixer until smooth.
  7. Top muffins with icing, and serve.

Notes

  • You can mash the bananas beforehand if you’d rather. This is a great idea if you’re using a whisk instead of an electric mixer. 
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature.
