Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or spray with non-stick cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt. Mix well to ensure all the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
In another bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Add the eggs, low-fat milk, honey, and vanilla extract. Whisk together until fully combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should still be slightly lumpy.
Fold in the chopped walnuts to the batter, ensuring they're evenly distributed.
Divide the batter evenly between the 12 muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
