Whole Wheat Honey Banana Muffin Recipe

A dreary cold November Sunday calls for some baking! And this morning these bananas on my counter were just calling to be baked into some delicious honey banana muffins. Do you have some bananas that need baking? Here is the recipe we used from Taste of Home.

What I love about this recipe is that it contains absolutely no sugar (just honey!) and it uses whole wheat flour. It's not totally healthy though...our son asked for chocolate-chip banana muffins, so I substituted the raisins for chocolate chips.

Makes 10-12 muffins
