Apparently I accidentally made this next recipe 4th of July themed in the middle of March ๐คท๐ผโโ๏ธ. Oh well! Ready to try some banana bread berry muffins?? You won't even notice that there's no added sugar!
If you hadn't noticed, I've on a bit of a baking kick the past few weeks. No idea why but lets roll with it yah?
These muffins are my newest iteration of my chocolate chunk berry banana bread. Pretty much the same recipe with two major changes.
One: NO ADDED SUGAR! Wanna know my secret? It's this sugar substitute called Swerve and ohemgee. This is NOT a sponsored post, I just really love Swerve. I've been using the white sugar substitute for my daily black tea afternoon caffeine fix but I only just discovered that they also have powdered sugar and brown sugar substitutes!
I have to say I was skeptical when it said bakes up and tastes just like brown sugar...but it REALLY does!!! You legit will not even be able to tell the difference.
Two: As you probably noticed, these banana bread berrymuffins (shockingly) do not have chocolate chunks. But that isn't to say that you can't add your own! To stick with the no added sugar theme, use about1 cup of dark chocolate/ bittersweet chocolate chunks. It will still contain some sugar, but the darker the chocolate, the lower the sugar amount.
Well, what are you waiting for?? Use up your leftover bananas and berries without the guilt, recipe below!
