Healthy Banana Honey Walnut Muffins

I love muffins and these healthy banana honey walnut muffins are one of my favorites! They are easy to make and filled with protein and energy packed ingredients so they are a perfect snack or breakfast item. I love to have them on hand for after school or work. They are refined sugar free and can easily be made gluten free.

I love walnuts in muffins! It reminds me of something a grandma would make in a good way, it’t homey, comforting and delicious. The honey in this recipe perfectly complements the banana and gives these the best sweet flavor without being overly sweet.
