For best results, don't overmix the batter. A few streaks of flour are okay. To toast the walnuts, spread them on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes, or until fragrant. These muffins are delicious served warm with a pat of butter or a dollop of cream cheese. Store leftover muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage.
