Maple and Walnut Sour Cream Muffins
I love banana nut bread. Growing up I helped my grandmother shell walnuts a lot, so she swapped the pecans for walnuts and maple syrup added was the bomb! The house smelled wonderful. Now when I make this I use the dark amber real maple syrup for a rich maple flavor. I hope you enjoy these as much as I do.
