**Gluten-Free Banana Nut Muffins**
**Ingredients:**
– 2 ripe bananas, mashed
– 2 eggs
– 1/4 cup maple syrup
– 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 1 1/2 cups almond flour
– 1/4 cup coconut flour
– 1 teaspoon baking soda
– 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
**Instructions:**
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed bananas, eggs, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract. Mix well until all the wet ingredients are fully incorporated.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter.
5. Fold in the chopped walnuts, reserving a few for topping the muffins.
6. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full. Top each muffin with a sprinkle of the reserved chopped walnuts.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
8. Once baked, remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
