Banana Blueberry Muffins
Banana Blueberry Muffins These nutrition packed muffins are great for breakfast on the run or snacking on during those mountain hikes.
Summer has finally arrived in Portland. It is supposed to get in the triple digits today, which is unusual for this area. (not that anything about the weather here has been usual this year!)
That means folk’s here will be heading to the coast or the mountains to escape the heat. Portlander’s don’t do heat well.
So, time to pack up the cooler and go, but don’t forget to pack these Banana Blueberry Muffins.
I like to cut them in half and slather on a bit of almond butter for an extra protein kick. But, they are also delicious on their own.
I found this recipe years ago in an issue of prevention magazine and has always been a favorite of mine.
Hope you enjoy as well.
Yum!
