Going Bananas

Yes literally, over  here I have been going bonkers...if you have read my other non-food blog www.takeawalkonmemorylane.blogspot.com, it features my brains scattered thoughts and general life.
Again sorry I haven't posted, as for the chocolate and honey strawberries, they were delicious but I didn't post because the photos looked mighty shit. So apologies. They were so easy to make though and I just went by what I thought so I do encourage you guys to have a try.

As for actual food, my father bought so many bananas so before they actually rotted my mother made a banana cake and some low cal muffins which I found the recipe of. Both delicious, and the low cal actually tastes really nice.

So here are the recipes...

BANANA MUFFINS
The good thing about these babies is that their ultra healthy, but they taste the same as normal sugared banana muffins the trick is to get bananas and leave them to ripen, if the skin is starting to blacken these are the best as they are easy to mash and have a softer, sweeter taste.

These are the ones we made...by the way. Just to put it out there I really like this camera angle to capture food. But look how soft and yummy they look. Trust me they satisfy and live up to the visual.
