I developed this dish to entice my finicky eater to try something other than cereal. He devours the chocolate chip cupcakes we dubbed them.

These are so good! We use white flour. Also makes a yummy bread loaf.
Yum! I added 1/2 Tbsp nutmeg and substituted 1 egg with 1 Tbsp ground flax seed and 3 Tbsp water.
This is now my go-to muffin recipe for my kiddos. I halve it and it perfectly cooks one mini muffins tray and one big muffin tray exactly. Thanks for recipe!
This was really good..i halved the recipe and baked it in a loaf pan (banana bread style). I used 1/3 cup of coconut sugar instead of white sugar and added a healthy dose of cinnamon and a bit of nutmeg. Baked the loaf for 55 mins at 350.
