Hi everyone, yes as you can see, I have another banana peanut butter recipe for you. These Healthy Banana Muffins with peanut butter and chocolate chips are so good! I had a friend give me 3 big cases of yogurt last week and I told her I’d make a batch of somewhat healthy banana muffins to repay the favor. You’ll be so happy eating one of these bad boys for breakfast, they are soft and full of fabulous flavor! I baked one muffin in a small ramekin then wrapped it up for my friend. Give it a try, it makes a cute homemade gift!
No worries if you are not a coconut fan, just leave it out. I made half of them with coconut topping for me and half without to satisfy my picky coconut hating husband! Hope you all enjoy!
