5 ingredient 1 bowl banana muffins

Healthy banana muffins aren't always easy to find but this 5 ingredient 1 bowl recipe will having you anxiously waiting for those bananas to ripen!

Sundays and Mondays are my favourite days to meal prep, bake and get us organized for our week ahead. I like to ensure my meals and grocery shopping is all taken care of and all my baking is done for our week ahead.

One of my go to, must make each week is our...5 ingredient 1 bowl Banana Muffins!!

Muffins are a staple in our house! Although, I think I eat the majority of them, as they are an easy to grab snack while I'm nursing or on the go!!

The hardest part is finding a recipe that's not full of butter and sugar but still tastes delicious!! I have a devoted Pinterest board to "Muffins" which is home to over 160 different muffin recipes! I have tried so many and they are either too hard...boring...too many weird ingredients...unhealthy...the list goes on.

And then one amazing Sunday, while spending way too much time on Pinterest, I came across a recipe which I have adapted it to make our favourite banana muffins! This recipe is delicious and easy to make that we have to double the recipe each time. The hardest part is waiting for the bananas to ripen fast enough!
