Feast your eyes on these delicious, moist muffins! We often think of muffins as an off-limit food when eating Paleo, however these muffins are made with a base of mashed sweet potatoes and bananas, which are a lot healthier than refined flours and sugars.
Muffins can be a convenient grab-and-go breakfast when time is short, but your stomach is growling. These muffins contain some protein, however you may want to also toss a hard-boiled egg or protein-rich snack in your bag as you’re running out the door. Many muffin recipes call for a hefty dose of nut-based flours. Many of these flours are expensive, and some people don’t digest them well. This recipe is made of a base of sweet potatoes and bananas with a bit of almond butter, so those sensitive to a large dose of nuts can enjoy these muffins.
If you have kids, and they’re interested in cooking with you in the kitchen, this is a great recipe to get them involved; they can mash the sweet potato and banana, and mix the ingredients in the bowl. After baking, they will also enjoy eating their creation, too!
