Recipe: Banana Chocolate Chip Nut Muffins
Banana nut muffins are delicious – this time, I added in some chocolate chips. These banana chocolate chip nut muffins are so yummy. I started with my mom’s banana nut muffin recipe – it’s delicious all on it’s own. Oddly, though, here in Alberta I can’t get the tops as dark as she did in Ontario. Different oven, maybe. Different altitude or climate. Who knows. Either way, they taste just as good. Ingredients 1 cup of sugar stick of butter 2 large eggs 3 large…

Recipe: Chocolate Banana Donuts
A few weeks ago I purchased about 12 bananas and let them rot. This is one recipe I was excited to try – chocolate banana donuts, or well, sort of donuts.

Ingredients 3 medium large ripe bananas 1/2 cup of melted salted butter 3/4 cup of brown sugar 1 large egg 1/2 cup of peanut butter…
