My 19th recipe, "Eggless Banana Nut Muffins"… This is probably one of my recipes’ which is tailor made for people like me… The one thing which has kind of become my habit; buying bananas at the supermarket and then completely forgetting about it and let them overripe… Now the biggest dilemma, whether to eat the banana or throw it away… Ah, both options are not what I prefer to do, but I dint have any other option until recently when I added this wonderful Banana Nut muffin to my repertoire … These muffins taste best when made with overripe bananas… I would call these as King of muffins; I haven’t tasted any other type of muffin which is yummier… A perfect fit for the holidays as well...

Notes:-
| • | Do not over mix or beat the batter. You will not get soft muffins. | |
| • | Adjust baking time according to your oven settings. | |
| • | In case your bananas are not overripe, you can add 1 tsp additional sugar for sweetness and upto 2 Tbsp of milk for moisture. | |
| • | You can as well use walnuts instead of pecans to top off your muffins. | |
