Gluten Free, Paleo, Banana Vanilla-Chai Protein Muffins

Weekend trips to visit my parents always turns into salvaging food on the brink of trash status. More food for me and a great way to experiment at no cost, thanks mom and dad! These muffins were inspired by my last visit.

What I like most about this recipe is the simplicity! 2 bowls, 10 minutes and you’re on your way! Store in fridge for longer shelf life.

Health Benefits: No refined sugar, paleo, gluten free, protein powder contains probiotics and enzymes to help with digestion. Last but not least if you are vegan, this recipe works for you! Replace egg with 3 tablespoons of warm water and 1 tablespoon of Chia seeds.
