It’s not a secret that my Max struggles with food. Well, not all food, just healthy food. He loves chocolate and carbs. I guess he is like me … but with less self-control. Breakfasts are especially a struggle. He does like scrambled eggs, but honestly, we don’t always have time for a hot breakfast around here. So, I’ve been on the look out for on the go options. And I’ve found something!
Thanks to my mama friend, Breanne, Banana Apple Oat Muffins or “Breakfast Cupcakes” as I’ve dubbed them make us all happy as we run out the door!

We really like these:http://redandhoney.com/blueberry-spinach-muffins/. I don’t put in the blueberries (the kids like to eat them on the side) and call them Hulk muffins, which makes it fun. Maybe you could call them Turtle muffins? :) Also, we make waffles and freeze them, and then defrost and make a waffle sandwich with peanut butter and honey or butter. I like this waffle recipe: http://cookieandkate.com/2014/easy-gluten-free-oat-waffles/. I usually sub the maple syrup for half a ripe banana.
Oh, I love the idea of waffle sandwiches!
These look yummy!
