This recipe was one happy accident that I ended up having to recreate later. It started when I needed a quick breakfast to take to work. I threw together a bunch of things in the food processor, added some blueberries and baked them while I finished getting ready.
When my assistant arrived, I handed her one, grabbed one for myself and we were out the door. It wasn’t until we got to the job when I could slow down and realize they were actually really good! I ended up making them later in the week and took a couple on a business trip.
They held up really well with the travel and although I wasn’t able to heat them up each morning, they were still pretty good with a cup of coffee. Hope you like them!
A few notes:
• Use bananas that are ripe, this will help make them sweeter without adding a lot of alternative sugars.
• Use an alternative sugar such as stevia, Lakanto or Gentle Sweet to keep it an E-meal for Trim Healthy Mama

• I used frozen blueberries and they worked great. Feel free to use fresh if that’s what you have on hand.
• This can be made almost completely in the food processor. Just add the blueberries when you’re done mixing.
• Be careful to not over bake. Since there is no fat, they will get dry quickly.

The banner on the recipe says Winter Tomato Bisque. Which I REALLY want! (although the muffins are a nice bonus….) Just letting you know…
