Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
Sift together flour, baking powder, nutmeg, cinnamon, and salt in a large bowl; set aside.
In another large bowl, whisk together melted butter, both sugars, eggs, vanilla extract, sour cream, and mashed bananas until combined.
Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix gently with a spatula until just combined to avoid over mixing.
Fold in blueberries and walnuts until just combined.
Divide the batter among the muffin tins, filling each to the top.
Press extra blueberries into the tops and sprinkle sparkling sugar if desired.
Bake in the center of the oven for 24 to 26 minutes until golden brown, and a toothpick comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
Cool muffins for at least 15 minutes in the pan before serving warm or transferring to a cooling rack.

Notes

Allow muffins to cool fully before storing to maintain texture.
These muffins can be frozen for up to 3 months; just thaw before enjoying.
Feel free to substitute walnuts with pecans or omit them if preferred.
