Gluten Free Banana Nut Muffin Recipe

Gluten Free Banana Nut Muffins

Gluten free recipes very often do not taste very good.  Let's be honest.  Many recipes are absolutely horrible.  This one, however, is so good that everyone likes them.  And, it only makes 8 muffins.  Of course, you could double the recipe if you wanted to make more!  Hope you enjoy this recipe.
