PBB & J Muffins (Peanut Butter, Banana & Jelly)

I’m always on the lookout for great after school snacks for the kiddos. And this one was really fabulous. Tasted like a PB & J- with a little bit of healthy stuff thrown in for good measure.

The sweetness of the bananas, allows me to add almost no sugar, and I’m a huge fan of that. Especially for snacks. We even had these for breakfast the next day.

PBB & J Muffins

1/2 cup coconut oil, soft

1/2 cup peanut butter

2 ripe medium bananas, smashed

1/2 cup brown sugar

1 egg

3 1/2 cups whole wheat flour

Pinch of salt

2 tsp. baking soda

1 1/2 cups milk

2 tsp. vanilla extract

1/2 cup of your favorite jelly

Cream together the coconut oil, peanut butter, sugar, bananas and egg. The add the flour, salt baking soda. Batter will be really thick. Then add your milk, and vanilla. Scoop batter into your paper lined muffin tins, filling 3/4 full. Then place a tsp of jelly in the middle of all the batter. Bake at 400 degrees for 10 minutes or until muffin springs back when lightly touched. Makes 24 muffins.

Happy Snacking! XO
