Recipe Name Whole Wheat Banana Muffins Submitted by Guest
Recipe Description You will love this healthy and versatile recipe! You can swap out the 1 cup of banana puree for any fruit or veggie-I've done butternut squash and kiwi (with seeds) and they were amazing! I use this to get my 2 year old to eat more veggies. A little peanut butter on top and they are a great "cupcake".
