Notes
- Bananas should be very ripe for the best banana muffins. Bake yellow bananas at 300 degrees for 15-30 minutes, until very browned, to ripen the bananas quickly. Cool completely before using.
- Swap the walnuts for pecans or chocolate chips, if preferred.
- Store tightly covered at room temperature for 4-5 days.
