Super-simple gluten free and sugarfree banana muffins perfect for a nourishing snack or naturally sweet treat.

These moist, naturally-sweetened muffins can also be made nut free by using coconut milk instead of nut milk.

I like to make a batch of these and freeze them for simple lunch box snacks or for morning/ afternoon tea. They contain no added sugars or sweeteners, just the natural sweetness of banana.
