Guilt-Free and Delicious ~ Peanut Butter, Banana, and Chocolate Chunk Muffins

Earlier this week I made up my own vegan muffin recipe and I am going to roll with this concept. Nut butter and mashed fruit form the base for these guilt-free muffins! This recipe is made especially for my little man!

~ Oven to 350°
~ Prepare muffin tins by coating with oil or cooking spray.
(You could also make this in a 4x9 loaf tin. Just cook it a little longer. Or use mini-muffin tins and bake only about 8 minutes.)

Prepare the wet mix in a wide mixing bowl. Combine:

• mash 1 medium size banana
• 1/2 nut butter (peanut butter today**)
• 1 cup "milk" of choice (it's soy here)

Prepare your dry ingredients in a separate medium/large mixing bowl.
Combine:

• 2 cups of flour of choice 
• 1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
• 1/2 tsp. salt
• 1/2 cup dark chocolate chunks (if you are cooking for a strict vegan make sure to get vegan chocolate chips!)

Make a well in the center of the dry mix, pour in the wet mix, and stir just until combined. Scoop your mixture evenly in to your tins and bake at 350 for about 8 - 10 minutes. Put a fork in it. When it comes out clean, they are ready.


Believe it! no eggs, no dairy, no gluten (if you used a gluten-free mix), very low sugar, and no sacrificing taste! Enjoy with your kids.


**Peanut butter is one of those foods that is probably worth paying for the organic version. Most peanuts (except organic) are genetically modified. If that word doesn't scare you, I don't know what will.
