This recipe is great when you have a bunch of overripe bananas to use up and some walnuts or pecans around the house.

Whilst baking, the muffins filled the house with a fragrant aroma. We were pleasantly surprised when our daughter (who is usually not interested in our kuehs or baked stuff) remarked that she couldn’t wait for them to come out of the oven. She ate 3 muffins fresh out of the oven, followed by another 2 muffins later in the day!

She even made a pizza for dinner and another batch of muffins for her friends. She thoroughly enjoyed herself. We consider it quite an achievement to get her interested in our baking adventure. Feeling accomplished and happy 🙂
