Grain-free, gluten-free and refined sugar-free but still super delicious! TheseGrain-free Banana Muffins are sure to be a win with both your kids' taste buds and their little growing bodies!
My favourite nut milks are Nutty Bruce or PureHarvest as they don't contain any artificial colours, flavours, preservatives or gums like a lot of other nut milks.
Similarly, my favourite dark chocolate is Green & Blacks Organic Dark Chocolate because it also doesn’t contain any artificial flavours, emulsifiers or vegetable oils like a lot of other chocolate.
It is also important to use Pure Maple Syrup not “maple flavoured syrup” as well as Vanilla Extract and not “vanilla essence” as imitation products are filled with artificial ingredients which can be detrimental to gut health. And because the gut houses 70% of our immune system, it is really important to look after it, especially during these relentless winter months!
