1 Preheat the oven to 350°F and grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line it with muffin liners.
2 In a large bowl, whisk together the mashed banana, maple syrup, coconut oil, eggs, and vanilla.
3 In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose and whole wheat flours, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg.
4 Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until just combined. Don’t overmix. Fold in the walnuts.
5 Evenly divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups, adding about a heaping ⅓ cup to each one. Top with the oats.
6 Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the tops spring back to the touch. A toothpick inserted should come out with just a few moist crumbs attached. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
