BANANA CRUNCH MUFFINS



Banana Crunch Muffins image

I made these for the first time after my baby was born 9 months ago and let me tell you...I ate about the entire batch! They are so darn yummy...and moist! Everyone that has tasted them absolutely love them. I have played with the ingredients a bit, toasting the coconut, using granola with raisins and almonds in it, every time they turn out perfect. Whenever I make these, I always think that the batter is a good base for any type of muffin (without the bananas, etc) but I haven't tried it yet. I originally found this recipe from the Barefoot Contessa.
