I don’t know about you but I like me some muffins!!

When I was a kid, my mom used to make me some banana chocolate chip muffins and I would just go crazy! They were my crack. No joke! I am ashamed to say that I would eat about 3 at a time. Especially when they would come out of the oven! Melted chocolate galore! Yum!

    Tried – turned out terrible, didn’t even form muffins. Are you sure of the pecans as ground and not just chopped? And 3 bananas?? What was the original recipe; what did you substitute?

    • Hi Elly!
      There’s a link on my page for the original recipe! I just substituted a bit of flour for the pecan meal and they were wonderful! Sorry it didn’t work out for you!

    • Hi Elly, I just made my muffins again and they were fantastic and I followed each and every step on my blog to the word…You probably forgot to put an ingredient in because they are wonderful if you follow the steps to the letter!
