Moist Lunchbox Friendly Carrot Banana Muffins
Coming up with recipes is hard work but making them up means I can share them with you!
Moist muffins that are gluten free are hard to make. These last for up to a week. I pop mine in the freezer in containers, labeled & ready for school
This one is designed for mums that want veggies in as well as fruit plus the muffin is sugar free!! Perfect for lunch boxes. If you'd like to add almonds you can swap them for sunflower seeds.
