Moist Egg Free Banana and Date Muffins

Cooking is my therapy. And when Possum (now 21 months old) decides sleep is for losers, mummy needs therapy. This recipe was conceived and baked in 30 minutes. In time for Possum and I to curl up on the couch together, eating muffins, watching Ratatouille and being friends again.

Since Possum was diagnosed with an egg allergy, I had gone right off baking. Not trusting egg replacements and I think being a bit OTT with mourning the lack of eggy goodness in our kitchen (as I’m still breastfeeding I’m not eating egg either). Now I am 18 weeks pregnant and recognizing I needed a healthy snack when I’ve got the munchies (goodbye nausea, hello appetite again!!).

I’m very proud to share with you my recipe for…
