This recipe, however, comes from my fantastic fiancé, Justin. He was nice enough to walk me through the steps to make these muffins and let me stop and take pictures :)
The recipe was inspired by this book (buy it here):
If you don't own it, go buy it. It's expensive, but totally worth it because it has EVERY recipe imaginable. At this point, he has changed it SO much, it really does not resemble the original recipe. BUT, credit must be paid.
ONTO THE BAKING.
Here is what you need...
2 cups of 100% whole wheat flour
1/2 cup of plain greek yogurt
2 eggs
3-4 REALLY ripe bananas
3/4 tsp of baking soda
1/2 tbsp of vanilla
2/3 cup of blue agave nectar
6 tbsp of melted butter
Pinch of salt
Your bananas should look like this:
Side note: blue agave is an EXCELLENT substitute for sugar. It's way lower on the glycemic index (read: less fattening), and it's just awesome. Use it.
Here is what you do...
1. Preheat oven to 345 degrees.
2. In a large bowl, mash up your bananas and add your eggs. Whisk or blend until bananas are no longer chunky.
3. Add yogurt, blue agave, baking soda, vanilla, butter and salt. Blend again until it is pretty smooth.

4. Add flour 1 cup at a time blending in between.
5. Pour into a muffin tray and bake for 25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
6. Let cool, and ENJOY!
I love when he makes these muffins. They make the BEST snack and, despite the healthy ingredients, they taste DELICIOUS.
Happy Sunday :)
