Super Simple Banana Muffins
Updated: Mar 6
This recipe is so simple, your school ager could probably make it themselves (perhaps with a little supervision).
It is what they call a 'dump' recipe...'DUMP' all the ingredients into one bowl, stir it up, put it into a pan, and bake it! No one will ever know how easy it was.
I love making muffins, especially for school lunches. It gives me peace of mind that my kids are getting some good fuel to help them do their best!
