Preheat oven to 375 F. Oil enough cups in muffin tins for 12 muffins or line the cups with paper baking cups.

In a large bowl mix the flour, wheat germ, baking powder, and baking soda.

In a separate small bowl, cream the butter. Beat in the honey, egg, orange juice, and vanilla. Add to the dry ingredients. Stir in the banana, walnuts, and orange rind.
