Yogurt and Banana Spice Muffins and a New Look!

 

Hey Everyone, the new look made it safe and sound. Now, I know you all wear your heels to go grocery shopping don’t you, I mean who doesn’t? No, seriously I know I’ll miss that great Viking kitchen, but it was time for a fun change to celebrate another year and I love what Shannon at 8 Crazydesigns did for me.

 

 

I was so excited to get an opportunity from 3-A-Day of Dairy to do some writing for them. Check out my latest article for some surprisingly healthy Halloween Treats!

I posted a great year in review last night and blogger erased half of my pictures, so this is a test to see if this post will work! Wish me luck! Looks like I need to work out a few kinks! These muffins are really good and great for anytime of the day. I used low fat yogurt and bananas in place of the oil, so they are almost guilt free! Enjoy.

    I just made the yogurt banana spice muffins this morning(great easy recipe!), however, the consistency turned out more like a cupcake than a muffin. The photo looks more dense like a muffin, just curious as to whether they should be like a cupcake or a muffin? How can I make them more dense like a muffin?
    Thank you in advance and thank you for all the great recipes and mouth watering photos!

    I tried these when you first posted this recipe and they’ve become a staple item in this house ever since!
    I went to make them today (because I have over ripe bananas and we’re SO tired of banana bread!) and realized I had no spice cake mix. 🙁 So, I tried them with chocolate- YUM! Kinda like a brownie, but not as rich. It was the only other cake mix I had on hand and I’m glad I tried! 🙂

    Love the new look!! Alot of times I go shopping right after work and so I end up going in heels. By the time I get home I fall on the couch and my wonderful husband brings the groceries in! 🙂 I can’t believe it has allready been a year for you! How exciting! Your blog is definitely on the top of my list! 🙂

    Hi Tami,
    I knew there would be people who wouldn’t like my new look in fact my husband hates it too. I get so bored looking at the same thing, I’m positive it won’t be the last new look around here!

    Hi Jenny-Love your new look! These muffins are to die for. I love spice cake and mixing it with bananas is an excellent idea.

    The blondies below look fantastic, too!

    Oh those sounds super yummy and you presented them so attractively. Do your picky eaters like these? I know my daughter would.

    The new look is great! I’d kill myself in heels! Your muffin pictures are so good…I’m jealous!

    Jenny, Blogger had to do some routine maintenence last night, so that’s probably why you lost your pics…I tried to leave a comment on a friend’s blog last night, but couldn’t and it had to wait until this AM.

    And yes, I wear heels to the store all the time, while I’m chasing down my 4 kids (NOT!). But I can dream about it…

  14. Emiline

    The new design looks great! I love it! Very sleek and professional.

    The muffins sound yummy too.

  15. Dawn

    I love how you’ve redecorated the place. It looks great around here. And yes, why not wear high heels grocery shopping?
    And congrats to you for getting a feature with the dairy folks. Someday soon I know we’ll be reading about your first cookbook or cooking show.
