Healthy Muffins made Easy

a quick blog post showing some healthy baked good recipes. they are all sugarfree, dairyfree, egg free. can easily be nut-free by swapping coconut milk for almond milk. if you want to make them gluten free swap in the flour you would usually use.
i often add a little protein powder to carbohydrate rich meals, to help stabalize blood sugar levels.  
my big guy is not the best protein eater so this is another way i can add that into his diet easily.

hope you and yor little ones enjoy these as much as we do!
