Healthier Chocolate Chip Banana Bread

October 9, 2014

Healthier Banana Bread Recipe

What do you do when you have an extra bunch of super ripe bananas sitting around…you make banana bread of course! My 2 girls request banana bread all the time so I have played around with making it lots of ways. This one is definitely a keeper. It is delicious, dense but still fluffy and moist and just sweet enough. Perfect for a quick breakfast in the morning or an afternoon snack when you get the munchies.

I love using coconut oil with this recipe and the coconut palm sugar is a healthier alternative to brown or white sugar.

Easy Honey Roasted Granola Recipe

May 30, 2014

For some reason I’ve never really eaten that much granola, mainly because none of the ones I’ve seen in the stores really appealed to me. Jim on the other hand eats it all the time, it’s one of his favorite snacks. I decided I would try making it myself and see what I thought.
