Banana Muffins

These muffins can be made as healthy as you want… use all sprouted whole wheat flour instead of a mixture of wheat and white, don’t add the topping to cut out more sugar (in the form of honey), use whole milk or lowfat milk… there are lots of ways to customize this recipe!

1 egg
1/2 cup coconut oil
1/4 cup raw honey
2/3 cup flour
2/3 cup whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
