If you need to make a quick and healthy muffin to kill off those cake cravings, then The Body Coach's almond butter muffins are perfect. These are the sweetest muffins without any processed sugar — every ounce of sweetness comes from the banana and dates.
The almond butter works to give the muffins a fluffy and moist consistency without any other fat, meaning there's only 4g of fat per muffin. Make these little muffins in minutes for the perfect post-workout snack, or evening treat.
