Banana and Walnut Muffin

Banana Walnut muffins- a great way to use over ripe bananas and this can be your breakfast recipe or a tea time snack. I love making these muffins because these are very fast and takes only few minutes to make...just mix all the ingredients together and bake them for few mins. I loved the combination of mashed bananas with crunchy nuts and hint of cinnamon powder. Here is the recipe.
