minutesThese muffins are so good and very healthy. They are delicious and moist and the flavor is so good. Sometimes, I will add peanut butter chips or a sprinkling of vanilla sugar on top. These are so good and they have a great amount of protein so I feel good about my kids eating these.

3 medium ripe bananas
1/3 cup cinnamon apple sauce
1 1/4 cups flour
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2 Tablespoons salted butter, softened

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
10 Tablespoons creamy Peanut Butter, divided, 8 Tablespoons + 2 Tablespoons

- In a large bowl, beat together sugar and butter until smooth. Add in egg white, egg, bananas, apple sauce, vanilla, and 8 Tablespoons peanut butter. Beat well and scrape sides of bowl down.
- On a piece of wax paper, mix flour, baking soda, and salt. Add to the batter and beat on low speed. Do not over mix. Fold in chips if using.
- Spoon a little batter into muffins cups, tap the pan so to spread out butter and it covers the bottom of each cup. Add a little of the 2 Tablespoons of PB to each muffin cup and cover with remaining batter. Sprinkle with vanilla sugar and place in a preheated oven for 22 minutes.
