I never realised how much I enjoy muffins until now. This will be my fifth muffin recipe in eight months (six if you include English Muffins), which is quite a lot I think! I think the main appeal is that you can legitimately eat them for breakfast even though oftentimes they are basically cake. Cake for breakfast. Win!
These are dressed up as a slightly healthier option though. Lots of protein courtesy of the peanut butter and bananas. Wholewheat flour for goodness. Only a quarter of a cup of sugar for twelve muffins and the option for no fat! Yogurt is added for body and moisture, you can choose to use 0% fat or low fat or even full fat if you don’t give a damn about that sort of thing. If that’s you’re attitude, I applaud you. For a little additional sweetness I added in some dried cranberries. Think peanut butter and jam, it really works. Chocolate would also work (when doesn’t it) in the form of chips or chunks. You choose and customise as you please. (more…)
