Banana Walnut Mini Muffins with Maltesers

By Love Joy Ocampo @beautychase_r
Bananas are fruits that are never gonna be outdated and since we have on over ripe bananas here, my fingers are getting restless again. You know what that means? No! of course not it's not because I'm addicted to touch screen phones hahaha.. Actually my fingers are itching to try something new, to bake something unconventional, to experiment with recipes. So, what do we have here? hmmm.. let me check our cupboards. Oh! we have leftover walnuts, perfect for banana walnut muffins... YAY!!!! And what do we have here hiding? MALTESERS!!! Maybe I can incorporate it with my recipe and let's see what's gonna happen hahaha...

This batch is just right for my taste cause I don't like it to be too sweet, but my brother said it taste bland like he's just eating plain walnuts hahaha... Maltesers aren't that sweet after all. Now what I did was I add a cup of white sugar to the remaining mixture and my gramps said the taste was heavenly ( I'm his favorite grand daughter by the way.. hahaha). The texture is super moist which I love cause I'am not a fan of muffins or cupcakes that will choke you because of it's dryness.
Yield: 38 mini muffins
