Happy kids with chocolate, banana, and peanut butter muffins in hand. Theses are special treats with less refined sugar and over processed flours. With a creamy base from mashed bananas and peanut butter, naturally sweetened with maple syrup and balanced with a dose of dark chocolate chips, my kids think these are cupcakes, but I won’t tell them the difference if you don’t!!

Chocolate muffins the Kids love and I’m okay giving them with brunch or as an afternoon snack. Combining creamy flavors of peanut butter and bananas into a sweet baked treat.
