Whole Wheat Banana Muffins

 

 Just made these whole wheat, no sugar muffins this morning, and we loved them!  I always enjoy watching my girls gobble up something that is good for them.  Even my 3 year old who typically doesn’t care for healthy muffins at her age ate these up!  I didn’t have quite a cup of mashed banana, so I filled up the measuring cup the rest of the way with applesauce.  I also love  nuts with muffins, so I sprinkled pecans on top.  They would be fabulous mixed in the batter too.
