These were a real treat! The taste of the ginger, banana and maple syrup were a surprise for everyone. Well done!

Wow these muffins really packed a punch! I loved them as i love any good baked good that is brave enough to have a spicy, bold taste. However the rest of my family found them to have a little too much kick and I suggest baking them with maybe half as much ginger. Otherwise they were to my liking.
