BANANA HAZELNUT MUFFINS
These are sweetened with just the banana, soaked dates, and the mini chocolate chips, so they are healthy but also delicious! I haven’t tried using ground hazelnuts instead of ground almonds, but that is next on my to-do list when making this recipe. These are the perfect yummy, quick energy snack!
