Banana Walnut Muffins

I had some bananas that were about to go bad and I wanted to do something with them. My husband always liked the Entenmann's Banana Nut mini muffins, so I thought why not make the real thing? I got this recipe for banana muffins from allrecipes.com and just added some walnuts to them. They are super moist and tender. Just a strong enough flavor of banana without being overpowering.

Banana Muffins:
adapted from allrecipes.com

1 1/2 cups all purpose flour

1 tsp. baking powder

1 tsp. baking soda

1/2 tsp. salt

3 large bananas, mashed

3/4 cup white sugar

1 egg

1/3 cup butter, melted

1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Coat muffin pans with non stick spray, or use paper liners. Sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.

Combine bananas, sugar, egg and melted butter in a large bowl. Fold in flour mixture and mix until smooth. Add in walnuts and mix until incorporated. Scoop into muffin pans.

Bake in preheated oven, 10 to 15 minutes for mini muffins, 25 to 30 minutes for large muffins. Muffins will spring back when lightly tapped.
