Banana Walnut Muffins

Banana Walnut Muffins

These taste just like little Banana Breads! I know some people don’t like Walnuts so they are easily left out or swapped for Chocolate Chips! These are easy to make and have a few extra special ingredients like caramelized Banana slices on top and the Sour Cream in the batter to help make them so moist.
