I have to admit, I am not much of a breakfast person except for on the weekend when no one is feeling rushed and there is lots of time to linger over a big breakfast of bacon and eggs or perhaps pancakes. Through the week, coffee gives me that morning jolt to get me going and later in the morning, I like to grab a muffin. I send one every day with my husband for his grab and go breakfast after a long commute into the city.
There are a whole host of fruits (and veggies too) that can be worked into a muffin batter, but these banana muffins are a favourite! They are so light and delicate and filled with great banana flavour. If you are a fan of banana bread, these muffins will be a hit at your house too! I find that the muffins are lighter - not quite as dense as banana bread but still filled with that great taste we love. What a great way to use up those bananas that may have been hanging around on the counter a little too long.
Enjoy in the morning with your coffee or as a snack with a big glass of milk!
