Banana Nut Muffins

Mmmmm…muffins. Vegan Banana Nut Muffins to be exact…although I don’t ever put nuts in them so they’re usually just banana muffins to me. These are SO easy and pretty much the only muffins I make. Probably because I’m lazy and sometimes hesitate to step outside of my baking comfort zone.  

My sis over at www.happyfoody.com introduced me a long time ago.
