Mini banana pumpkin chocolate chip muffins
I don’t know about you, but I have been loving simple baking recipes these days. And these mini muffins are exactly that. They come together in just a few minutes and are simple enough that the kids can do this one on their own if they want.
These muffins are a healthy snack for your whole family, jam packed with oats, hemp hearts, pure pumpkin puree and more you can feel good about having them as a snack anytime of the day!
If you want to make sure they are vegan: just make sure you are using vegan chocolate chips, as the recipe is otherwise vegan
If you want the recipe to be gluten-free: sub a good gluten free flour 1:1 and make sure the oats you are using are gluten-free too.
