Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your muffins will be.
  • Mash the bananas well: This will help to create a smooth batter.
  • Use a food processor or blender to chop the walnuts and dates: This will help to create a fine crumb that will distribute evenly throughout the muffins.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in tough muffins.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will help to ensure that the muffins are cooked through.
  • Let the muffins cool for a few minutes before eating: This will help to prevent them from falling apart.

These banana date walnut muffins are a delicious and healthy snack or breakfast option. They are low in fat and vegan, making them a great choice for people with dietary restrictions.
