Lullaby Banana Muffins
"Having trouble sleeping? Or just want a tasty, healthy snack or breakfast? Many foods have natural soporific qualities. Between the bananas, the whole wheat, and the honeyed touch of sweetness, these muffins are practically an edible lullaby. Accompany with some warm milk, and you'll be in dreamland before you know it. From an Annie's Naturals e-letter."

These are just what I was looking for. I halved the recipe since my husband doesn't eat whole wheat flour :) I didn't use pastry flour, just regular whole wheat flour. I'm sure it would have been a little better if I'd had the perfect texture, but the taste was nice, yummy, healthy-tasting banana muffin. Next time I will probably add some cinnamon/nutmeg.

My most important characteristic is this: I am a child of God through the gracious work of Jesus Christ!
I love to be with my family and friends. Interests? Writing, reading, cooking, dancing, teaching, splashing in puddles...I am an English teacher, wannabe children's author, and a bit of a health nut...and I can't stand high pitched squeaky noises.
