What makes these tender banana cupcakes extra special is the nutmeg, but make sure it's fresh. They're amazingly good; I get request for them all the time. —Rachel Krupp, Perkiomenville, Pennsylvania

BRILLIANT! I LOVE this recipe - I also added a teaspoon of cinnamon, and substituted one half-cup of the all-purpose flour with whole-wheat flour. The chocolate chips I threw in there weren't a bad idea, either!

RE: Banana walnut cupcakes: I made a triple batch of these last night because I had bananas I had to use up.They wee very good.I used 1 1/2 tsp of FRESH ground nutmeg which I think was a bit too much (I grate my own via a microplane grater-it is just superior to regular nutmeg) and I used a little extra banana to make them moist. My boys loved them, they had a great flavor and were incredibly moist. Loved the frosting too!! They (all 36 cupcakes) are gone as I type!! Thanks for a great recipe!!

I made the walnut banana cupcakes this past weekend but added a little more banana for extra moistness and substituted whole wheat flour. Marvelous!

these cupcakes were a hit, everyone loved them, I used pecans instead of walnuts.

Rachel... you just made my day. I bake cupcakes every week for my hubby. This morning before he left for work, he specifically requested banana walnut cupcakes. I figured I would spend most of the morning looking for a recipe. Took 5 minutes. I'm going to double, because 12 won't last three days let alone a week. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
