For a delicious and easy muffin recipe, my Banana and Choc Chip Muffins are perfect. Make life a little easier for yourself and have a baking day, stock up on these yummy muffins, and freeze them for your kid’s lunch boxes to have on hand for the next few weeks.

This Banana Choc Chip Muffin recipe is really quick to prepare.  As the recipe suggests you can add nuts, but as one of my kids has braces I didn’t add nuts to the mix, instead I added some flaked almond to the top, leaving 2 without nuts especially for her.  If your children suffer nut allergies, definitely leave the almonds out, as they are optional.

What I love about this recipe is that it’s versatile, and you can change the chocolate to use white, milk or dark chocolate, plus they are great to add frozen to the lunch box, as it will be defrosted by morning tea time.

I hope you really enjoy this recipe, as much as my family does. Don’t forget to order my Lunch Box Recipe Cookbook, for some fabulous recipes for your kid’s school lunches.
