Banana chocolate chip muffins anyone?!


Happy Friday!
In keeping with my goal of baking at least one treat per week, I chose to make a good ol' fav of mine- banana chocolate chip muffins. BUT, with a slightly healthy twist: 100% whole whole and IF they didn't have chocolate chips, they'd be fat-free. So think of it as a nutritious banana muffin, with a kick of chocolate and a sprinkling of turbinado sugar on top.

Mini-sized, cute, you can just pop 'em in your mouth! The perfect balance, right?
No one can ever tell that they are whole wheat and have a fat-free batter!
:)

Enjoy!
Have a great weekend!

Healthy, In-Season, & Scrumptious: That's What It's All About

Happy Fall!
The colorful, cooler season brings warm, comforting flavors to the forefront, and gives me an excuse to test out lots of new pumpkin and apple recipes!

I made these little guys for my group's presentation to Whole Foods.
They are Pumpkin Apple Cinnamon muffins. Made them mini so that everyone in the class could try them! The best part? They are whole wheat, fat-free, reduced sugar, and DELICIOUS! The Marketing Manager of Whole Foods loved 'em, that says something, right?!


More Fall Baking to come!!

Homemade Peanut Butter Cups!

Once you have these, you'll never buy Reese's again!!

I first made these for my brother's 16th birthday! Since I was in DC, and he was in MA, I knew I had to make something that could be shipped. Made these, sent him half, and kept half for me and my old roommate (and best friend in the whole world <3 you). A few special other people got to try them too :) Will definitely make again!!

hint: there is not only peanut butter in the center, but also peanut butter mixed in with the chocolate!!
