From our skinny table to yours ...

Boy do we have a treat today for you! Introducing our FAVORITE new way to make muffins. Five ingredients and amazingly delicious.

Our Banana Walnut Egg mini muffins are a simple mixture of one mashed banana, two eggs, a sprinkle of cinnamon, a splash of vanilla extract and topped with crushed walnuts. That's it!

My 3 year old LOVES to help in the kitchen! Rather than an easy bake oven (do they even make them anymore?!), for her birthday she got a Babycakes Cupcake Maker. We typically swap out the cake batter for mini muffins which are just as delicious & still feel like a special treat :) With the cupcake maker, these came together in about 5 minutes but they can absolutely be baked in the oven.

The best part?! A serving is 6 whole deliciously adorable mini muffins!
