Gluten Free Banana Strawberry Muffins
As you all know, my husband enjoys his muffins for breakfast. So when I saw a bunch of almost-time-to-toss-out bananas on the counter, I decided to make some muffins. What else was hiding in my fridge that needed used up? Strawberries! So I got busy in the kitchen feeling a bit like a mad scientist.
The result was amazing. These muffins are moist and delicious and hold together great even without using muffin cups. And when I asked my husband if he liked these and his response was, Can I have another one?
This recipe only makes a single pan of muffins so we frozen half and ate half (mostly in the first day, lol). I pulled them out a couple of weeks later and once thawed they were just as amazing.
