Tips:
- Use ripe plums. Ripe plums are sweeter and have a more intense flavor than unripe plums. They will also be softer and easier to mash.
- Mash the plums well. This will help to release their juices and make them easier to incorporate into the batter.
- Toast the walnuts. Toasting the walnuts will bring out their flavor and make them more crunchy.
- Use a combination of flours. This will help to create a muffin that is both light and fluffy.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the muffins tough.
- Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will ensure that the muffins are cooked through.
