Banana Muffins

Banana are a good source of fibre and they are easily available in Malaysia all year round. Thus we can actually make this type of muffins anytime we want. Not only do they taste great any place and any time, but the health benefits of bananas are of astounding. Bananas are a great source of instant energy whether you are watching your diet or just trying to eat healthy. Besides having them raw, they are widely used to make cakes, cupcakes, dessert and etc and of course in this post, I have used them to make muffins. Banana muffins make great healthy breakfast or snacks anytime you like. This recipe is a keeper because the texture of the muffins were soft and moist and of course full of the banana fragrance. You can actually put any types of nuts in the batter to get the 'crunchy' feeling when you're eating the muffins. I had used walnuts in my muffins. :)
