Bran, Apple, Banana and Date Muffins

Wholesome muffins are for All

Hey Wisefoodies :) how's it going??

I'm pretty sure it isn't just me who can only eat 3meals a day!  I need my snacks (like all the time!), and usually I love to to eat muffins, cookies and cakes... chocolate mmmm! And what I find after snacking on these is the feeling of bloat-ness, and just generally, I feel so unhealthy inside and regret eating so much of it.

One way to feel great about yourself, is to choose a healthy snack, whether is be fruit salad, or yogurt and muesli or carrots and celery sticks...but that just bores me! Now you can get different variations of a healthy muffin recipe, but this one is my own, and I simple love these muffins!

The best thing about these muffins, is that they keep you fuller for longer and can really be eaten at any time of the day, or even as a breakky meal when on the go :)
