Absolutely Delicious!!!!! Love them.. The green mixture by itself is a great Smoothie as well !!!
These were delicious! Thanks so much for the great recipe.
Fantastic muffins! The recipe worked out perfectly despite me tweaking it a bit! I added blueberries in place of the second banana and a scoop of green veg powder. My son was totally fooled and ate six in a row!!! He looked quite confused as to why I let him do that lol X
Can the peanut butter be skipped? Otherwise they sound fabulous
Hi, Jenn! Although I haven’t tested these without the peanut butter, I don’t see why you couldn’t omit it. If you do, let me know how they turn out. Enjoy!
