If you want a deliciously sweet muffin recipe to make, my banana & honey muffins are one of the best. The honey provides you with a real sweet treat, perfect for your kid’s lunch boxes. The muffins are also freezer friendly, so you can stock up for the week.

I always buy bananas in our weekly grocery shop, and while some weeks they are eaten up quickly, others they aren’t.  Usually, I leave them as long as possible in the fruit bowl and then I freeze them for future baking.

I got up early recently and popped a few bananas in the microwave for 1 1/2 minutes to defrost and then made this recipe, all baked within 20 minutes.

I spooned 6 patty cases with the mixture and then added some walnuts to the remainder of the mix.  I did it this way as the kids can’t have nuts at school, so I have a few school lunchboxes and the others for home.
