These banana nut muffins are not overly sweet, but are honest and wholesome in that they contain nuts, banana and whole wheat which are obviously good for you.
I often have bananas that have become over-ripe and find myself looking for banana recipes because I just can not throw them away, I'd rather use them and make something delicious to eat. I have recently discovered that I can freeze ripe bananas and use them when I need some which I find incredibly handy.
Banana muffins are always a hit in my home and this muffin recipe is rather delicious. My children enjoy them very much.

Cook's Notes:
You can use any nuts you wish. I use mixed nuts and to save time, I don't chop them, but put them into a plastic bag and hammer them gently with a meat mallet until they're crushed to my liking.
I do hope you enjoy making this muffin recipe. It honestly couldn't be quicker or easier to make and will make even the most novice of cooks feel like a champion.
