Vegan Carrot Banana Muffins

I love breakfast, but sometimes through the week it is hard to leave myself enough time to make breakfast and leave for work on time. I thought about what I could make in advance that was yummy, easy to eat on the go, and healthy. I found an old recipe that I have not made since becoming vegan. It was a go to recipe from my "Paleo" days. I had to modify it a little to make it vegan, but it kept that same yummy taste!

You can make these on Sunday and eat two on your way out the door for the next few days. They also freeze well if you don't want to eat them all week.

These yummy muffins are filled with carrots, dates, walnuts and bananas. I told you...yummy and healthy!

I hope you enjoy these muffins as much as I do!

Happy New Year!!!
