    What Is A Paleo Muffin?

    Have you heard the term paleo before? It's a word used to describe recipes that use whole ingredients that might have been available to people in the paleolithic era (caveman/cavewoman).

    The idea behind paleo recipes is that the closer to whole foods that you can eat, the better it will be for your body.

    These muffins are made with high-fiber whole foods that will nourish your body with essential vitamins and nutrients.

    There is so much to love about these paleo muffins! They are a nutritious and easy way to start your day. The fiber from the bananas and protein from the almond butter will fuel your body all day long.

    These muffins are both grain-free and gluten-free. They are also dairy-free and are made without peanuts. They are the perfect thing to make for almost any food sensitivity.

    As you keep eating healthy, how about making paleo chicken nuggets next? They are super tasty and filling.

    Can you use peanut butter?

    I would stick with a runnier nut butter (like almond butter). I substituted peanut butter previously and it wasn’t as moist as the original recipe.
