Pumpkin Banana Muffins

Stop.

It’s Muffin time!

These little muffins made my heart sing!  They are packed full of whole grains and fruit AND the sweetness comes from a the bananas and a bit of honey…no sugar!

I was more than happy to let my boys gobble these up for after school snacks (and they were begging for more!)
