Banana Blueberry Breakfast Muffins
Are your mornings busy, too? As we head into the back to school routine, I'm having a hard time getting my son to eat breakfast. Soon, he'll be getting up at the crack of dawn to swim, and he shouldn't exercise on an empty stomach.
This Banana Blueberry Breakfast Muffins recipe will help. It's healthy since it's filled with fruit, fiber and protein.
Greek yogurt adds moisture as well as protein. Both fresh or frozen blueberries work great in this easy blueberry recipe. The fiber comes from the wheat flour, oats, and flaxseed.
Since these muffins are portable, they're perfect to eat on the drive to practice or school along with a cup of milk. It's a quick breakfast for moms, too, when you're driving carpool!
Do you know a trick for always having over-ripe bananas on hand for baking treats like these muffins or Banana Chocolate Chip Bread? Whenever I have any but don't need them right away, I freeze them! Then, it just take a little time to defrost them before using them in a recipe like this.
