CARROT BANANA MUFFINS | NO FLOUR. NO SUGAR.
This gluten-free carrot banana raisin muffin was a suggestion from a friend of mine. It has no flour and no sugar. This is a recipe that her entire large family raved about and she had to share it with me. I’m so glad she shared it with me because we love it also. I love my smart friends and learning from them! You all are the best resource a girl could have.
We made an adjustment to the original recipe by changing the dried fruit. There is no flour and no sugar in this recipe. It’s gluten-free. They are sweetened entirely with fruit. They taste fantastic! They make the house smell fantastic and I think they’re even better after they cool.
