Banana Choc Chip Almond Muffins

by Katrina - The Organised Housewife September 19, 2016October 30, 2019

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.

This Banana Choc Chip Almond Muffin recipe is really quick to prepare, a great recipe for the kids lunch boxes (omit nuts if your school doesn't allow).

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 thought about introducing my review of the Miele I thought about introducing my review of the Miele Triflex HXI Pro with a vacuum joke… but then realised they always suck (sorry, I couldn’t help myself – lol!)
 
In all honesty though, I have a lot of boxes I like ticked when picking the perfect vacuum cleaner. Visit the link in my bio to see if Miele’s first handstick vacuum managed to tick all these boxes for me!

My day has consisted of a moment of binge watching My day has consisted of a moment of binge watching Firefly Lane. Then running kids around. 

I’m putting a candle on to sit for a moment. Then it involves more mums taxi. I’ll cherish these moments though cause they will stop soon enough. Then what am I going to do when I’m not running kids around? Ooh the thought 🤪
