Banana nut muffins are a staple at any decent café or bakery. With this recipe you can get that same quality without leaving the comfort of your own home. These muffins have always been a personal favorite of mine and they’re so easy to make.
Perfect for a brunch or an afternoon snack, the hardest part about making them will be getting your family to believe they aren’t store brought. Once they bite into these moist and nutty muffins they’ll be begging for more. Plus these muffins are whole wheat so they’re a good way to sneak some grains into your children’s diet (wink wink).
