With the world becoming more health conscious in recent years with the rise of Vegan, gluten-free and GMO free diets, people are more considerate of what they put in their bodies.

Banana-Nut Oat Muffins
I’m always in search of some good gluten free muffins. It’s a more difficult task that you might think when you don’t eat dairy, sugar and flour.
But I found a pretty good Banana-Nut Oat Muffins recipe that was simple to make. If you’re used to delicious, flaky, mouth-watering muffins, then you probably won’t be a fan of this recipe. But for those who don’t eat real bread, or are looking for a healthy muffin recipe, then you’ll definitely enjoy these.
The muffins are a little dense because of the oats, but the taste certainly makes up for it. They’re also vegan, which means they don’t contain animal products such as eggs and milk.
