Maple Syrup Banana Muffins

My Easy Banana Muffins recipe is one of the oldest in my recipe collection. They're definitely tasty, but my preferences for sweetness have changed significantly over the years. Now with two littles, I'm not too keen on feeding them tons of sugar in something homemade that's not a cake or a cupcake. That's why I was ecstatic to discover this recipe from Gimme Delicious that uses maple syrup (and not too much of it) as the sweetener.
