One Banana- Banana Bread Muffins
Not sure if y'all knew this but… Dessert is our love language! One of our most effective nutrition practices is to choose fresh, home-prepared foods over store bought options. Knowing what ingredients go into our meals and snacks is a huge advantage- especially when it comes to tracking macronutrients and caloric intake.
We believe there’s always room to enjoy baked goods in moderation. Cue the fabulous ONE Banana Chocolate Chip Banana Bread Muffins! This recipe is fantastic for that one banana that’s taken a tour of our entire office, home and commute with you multiple times and has truly been through it.

One of our favorite hacks at HLS is using muffin pans to bake rather than loaf pans as they make treats easier to transport and help us keep an eye on our portions. For our girlies getting it done, this recipe preps and bakes fast as well!
