Banana, Macadamia, Coconut and Cinnamon Muffins

“This seemed like a really long list of ingredients but don’t worry it’s really easy to put this cake together! Starting with all ingredients at room temperature, it only takes 5 minutes to measure them and another 5 minutes to mix them together – and then they’re ready to be baked! You’ll get some absolutely soft, fluffy, moist and delicious muffins, so do give these muffins a try!” Jasline
