Healthy Snacking: Banana Oat Muffin Tops


I have been cutting the carbs and sugar out of the diet.  Finding healthier alternatives for my family.

If you are like me, you LOVE the tops of the muffins and it's the first thing you eat. I have been looking for a recipe without using white or wheat flour. 

Banana Oat Muffin Tops



Using my muffin top pan (the recipe made 12 large) I mixed all the ingredients together in my food processor and the rest was cake. 

They were great warm.  The original recipe uses sugar. I substituted honey as the sweetener so they are not too sweet and paring them up with your coffee or tea is perfect.   I did not use chocolate chips in these. However, I did use these organic free trade chocolate nibs from Theo.  PERFECT crunch! 

If not sweet enough, after they come out of the oven you can pour some honey over the top right before you eat, it for some added sweetness.

I liked to say I froze some, but I can't lie...the children loved them..


My new "go to" breakfast muffin. No guilt and lots of healthiness in these muffin tops.

You can find the recipe at this website. 

Until next time - be blessed!

Collage Friday and a Video

We have had a good week here in NY. The snow is melting and the signs of spring are everywhere!  I am ready for the light coat and to put away my Uggs for the season.   Zachary worked on the Women and Children of the Revolutionary War - and some fun Scholastic - Super Science!  He is always working on his IPAD playing Scrabble, Words with Friends, Monopoly, Stack the States and Stack the Countries. The girls and I talked about what is happening outside with the plants and animals. Waking up!  Sammie also enjoyed this Sofia the First Unit.
