Blueberry Banana Breakfast Muffins

Each muffin has 1/4 of a banana and some anti-oxident rich blueberries. I’m always looking for something to take on the road for busy mornings, so I triple this recipe and freeze the extras for when we need them. I found myself eating them as snacks because they are so good. I’m especially happy that these healthy muffins have a nice, moist texture without needing any saturated fat.
