Vegan Banana Walnut Muffins That Are Worth Crossing The Border For! Low fat, sugar free

hate throwing food away.  That said, this plant-based  banana walnut muffin recipe is perfect for those times when you discover you have a bunch of bananas in the RV the night before before you have to cross the border to the USA. I created this recipe one beautiful autumn day in southwestern Manitoba, when there wasn’t any internet access.  I had to cross the US border to North Dakota and I found I’d been blessed with too much produce.  These nutritious protein rich muffins are sugar-free, fat-free, plant based, and so moist and delicious that omnivores love them too!  They are a yummy quick breakfast, but they’re also good for snacking on the road.
