I've made the same banana bread recipe forever and decided to make muffins instead. I tried this one because the ratings and reviews were so high. The only thing I did different was used pecans instead of walnuts--personal preference. These muffins are AMAZING. My family loved them more than my banana bread, which is huge! I have to say, I do too. They're nice and very flavorful...a great breakfast or snack. I think I'll be making these instead of my bread going forward. LOVED THEM! - 13 Aug 2017 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)

Made just as written with walnuts in half and chocolate chips in other half. Both really good. Grandpa and grandkids all happy! - 03 Aug 2017 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)
