Banana Bread Bites

Can you tell muffins are one of my fav foods to make?! I have several recipes on the blog for muffins (Superfood Chocolate Muffins, Banana Oat Chocolate Chip Muffins or Blueberry Oatmeal Muffins) and I don’t see myself stopping anytime soon! LOL! I mean they are basically a naked cupcake! My latest obsession is adding them to my Siggis yogurt bowl with different yummy toppings. When breakfast can be a dessert you know it’s going to be a GREAT day!

I found the inspiration for this recipe scrolling through IG when another food blogger posted muffins for meal prep – GENIUS! Knowing that there is a batch of these ready to go every day will ensure my breakfast happiness I thought! Plus I was able to share them with my 5:45am circuits class since the batch made sooo many! Yes, if you come to my class I will feed you for your hard work!

Like my other recipes, I always like to sneak in superfoods like hemp seeds, flax meal or chia seeds for that added boost of protein, omega 3’s and energy! You never taste them so why not?! Additionally, there is almond butter (feel free to sub any nut butter or sunflower butter), bananas (duh, of course!) almond flour, eggs (have not tried flax), crushed walnuts (leave out if nut allergy) and vanilla for a touch of sweetness.

Love how these are mini and poppable! Great for on the go snacking, kids lunchboxes, adults lunchboxes and freezer friendly so make a big batch and have back up in case of an emergency! Want to make them into full-size muffins? Go right ahead! If you have the chance, heat them up before eating – they taste even more amazing – if that is possible!
