Banana Walnut Crumb Muffins
I changed it up a little bit to make it a "little" bit healthier...i did wind up using real sugar but I used I cant believe its not butter, and i added a scoop of vanilla protein powder to the mix. Also, i added a handful of chocolate chips and i also added some walnuts into the batter...not just in the topping :)
