Notes

Baking temperature varies from oven to oven, so keep an eye on the bake after 15 minutes.
I have used jaggery in the recipe, you can replace it with brown sugar or just plain white sugar.
I baked a few muffins without walnut toppings, as my younger prefers less things on his muffin.
If you prefer the classic dense banana muffins, then skip the baking soda and make baking powder ¾ teaspoon , you will get classic dense banana muffins.
