These strawberry banana chocolate chip muffins are a healthy, paleo, treat that the whole family can enjoy. The recipe also includes a low carb version. Easy to make, so the kids can join in and help on this one. Great for Valentine’s Day breakfast or just an ordinary Sunday morning treat. These would be amazing in those cute shaped muffin pans.
I added mini chocolate chips to mine but you could omit the chips and just have strawberry banana muffins. These are grain free, gluten free, starch free and have a lower carb and dairy free options.
My son loves to have these as an after school snack and my older daughter like to have these with coffee or tea. Click below to check out some cute shaped muffin pans: Cute Shaped muffin Pans
