Candice’s Low Carb Banana Muffins
So if you low carb you know that banana’s are FAR from being low carb! Well when you only eat 1/10 of a medium size banana it really is not that bad.
I’ve been dreaming of banana bread lately.. so here is the recipe I came up.
Really the 1 banana is plenty for good banana taste. The peanut flour adds a bit of a peanut butter flavor which plays well with the banana! These muffins are definitely a yummy treat! So moist and just really SO good!
Great for a quick breakfast or snack!
Hope you enjoy!
