Nut Butter Oat Muffins

I’m aiming to run for a long time this Saturday so when a friend of mine sent me this recipe I just had to try it.

I added a lot of natural sugar and fats to this muffin because I wanted to create something unique in that it would sustain a runner during a long haul.

There are two versions to this recipe. I have used Peanut Butter in one muffin and chocolate Macadamia Nut Butter in the other. The Macadamia Nut Butter version is my fave.

Macadamia Nut Butter Muffin Ingredients

2 banana’s mashed mixed with 1 tsp bicarb

1 tsp vanilla

2 large eggs

1/4 cup honey, raw

1/4 cup chocolate macadamia nut butter

1/2 cup chocolate chips (I used white)

1 1/2 cup oat flour

1/2 cup cassava flour

1/2 tsp salt
