This recipe is a crowd pleaser and a great grab-and-go snack! These muffins are a favorite of my kids and I feel good giving them this snack that is made with wholesome ingredients. The chocolate chips are optional, but if you choose to use them we recommend the brand “Life Joy” because they are soy free. Give it a try and let us know what you think!
