Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Banana Muffins

Teresa Ambra
Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Banana Muffins are awesome! These delightful muffins include bananas, walnuts, cinnamon, nutmeg and miniature chocolate chips. They're flavorful and so delectable that everyone will want one. These are made with Gluten Free flour but can be made with regular flour as well. The muffins freeze well so they can be made in advance. If you want a drool-worthy muffin for breakfast, these will surely make you swoon!
