It's WISE to DIY: Thrify Ideas for the Do-It-Yourselfer

The EASIEST, YUMMIEST, 5 Ingredient Muffins You Will Ever Make

Who doesn’t like a good mini-muffin? I recently started baking zucchini muffins for my kids because I was SO tired of them just wanting to snack on potato chips all the time.  I discovered that muffins can be a great way to sneak healthy ingredients into your child’s diet because you can throw in chia, zucchini, hemp seeds…they will never know!

Unfortuantely, muffins can sometimes be a lot of ingredients, work and clean-up.

Here is an amazingly simple muffin recipe that has only 5 ingredients, no gluten, no refined sugar and VERY little clean-up.  It’s packed with protein from the egg and peanut butter, too!

Ingredients:

  • Heaping 1/2 cup of store-bought no-mix peanut butter
  • 1 egg
  • 1 banana
  • 3 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda (optional)

Directions:

  • Preheat to 400 degrees
  • Prepare the mini-muffin pans with cooking spray
  • Add all the ingredients except the chocolate chips (they will be pulverized!) to the blender.  Blend till smooth, about 1 minute.
  • Add the chocolate chips and mix by hand.
  • Use a small cookie scoop to fill each muffin 3/4 of the way.
  • Sprinkle a few extra chocolate chips on top of each muffin
  • Bake for 8-10 minutes.

Makes about 17 mini-muffins.

These are wonderful snacks for the kids and great to put out at parties!
