Sometimes I am in need for a quick breakfast carbohydrate that I can pull out of the freezer and heat up. These clean banana nut bread muffins are a great for just that. I make a whole batch of them and then I place them in the freezer. I will then pull them out for myself and my kids! They love them. I will heat them in the microwave and drizzle some honey or agave on them!
