Buckwheat Banana Muffins

The CSA included a package of buckwheat flour in the last box, and I happened to have two super ripe bananas that I needed to make something with, so I came up with these muffins:

2 large bananas
2 eggs
1/2 tsp almond extract
1 tbsp maple syrup
1/2 tsp ground cardamom
1/2 tsp nutmeg (I used fresh)
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 cup buckwheat flour
scant 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
scant 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips

-Combine bananas, eggs, almond extract and spices.
-Sift together soda, powder and flour.
-Stir dry ingredients into wet ones.
-Fold in chips and walnuts.
-Scoop into muffin tins.
-Bake at 350 for 20 minutes.

Result = a healthy, flavorful muffin! Doesn't need any added sugar because the bananas were so ripe and sweet.
