Whole Wheat Healthy Banana Pumpkin Muffins (Vegan!)

Football. Pumpkin spice. Warm lattes. Flannel. Cozy socks. Bonfires → these are a few of my favorite fall things, and I’m stoked that it’s officially that season (well, almost). 

Craving a healthy, delicious fall treat? Today I’m sharing our recipe for whole wheat healthy banana pumpkin muffins.

Let’s just say that if Starbucks’ pumpkin spice latte is out, then I know it’s time to whip out the Kitchen-Aid and make some pumpkin-flavored goodies.

The Easiest Charred Brussels Sprouts Salad

For some reason, a shredded brussels sprouts salad always feels more elevated than a regular salad. I make this charred brussels, radish and apple salad for EVERY single gathering and people are always obsessed with it, so I’m excited to share the super easy and quick recipe here.

Another reason I love this salad is that all the veggies are all shaved thin and get super crispy and delicious under the broiler. It’s also delicious right out of the oven or cold as leftovers the next day, making it a really perfect meal prep for lunches during the week.

Homemade Banana Oat Granola Bars

Hey, everyone — Courtney here! Raise your hand if you promise yourself that you’ll give yourself enough time to eat a solid breakfast in the morning and then actually never do.

I definitely do this, and always end up snagging a granola bar on my way out the door. 

Since most of my favorite granola bars either taste like chocolate candy or cost $3 per bar, I decided to start making my own.

Lightly sweetened with mashed banana and honey, these whole wheat banana oat bars are the perfect on-the-go breakfast. My fiancé and I have actually been eating them for dessert, too :)

Vegan Banana Blondie Recipe

It’s officially fall! Not sure how we got here, but PSLs are back on the menu, football has returned, and my sweaters have come out of hiding.

Courtney here — and today I’m making a sweet, comforting vegan treat — banana blondies. While these don’t necessarily scream fall, my dreams of making pumpkin chai cookies were crushed when I found out my Whole Foods hasn’t stocked pumpkin yet. I guess the universe is telling me to savor summer a little longer.

Thankfully, I had three very ripe bananas left over from last week’s grocery haul. I tried to make a slight departure from my normal bread and muffin recipes and make some blondies — essentially brownies sans the cocoa powder.

Healthy Baked Buffalo Cauliflower Wings

Being a midwestern girl at heart, I will never not have a weakness for any and everything buffalo. Growing up in Ohio, buffalo wings are kind of a major food group (or so it seems to me), and they are without a doubt both me and my husband Brett’s favorite guilty pleasure indulgence.

I’ve been wanting to come up with a go-to recipe for a healthy take on fried chicken wings that would still hit the spot when we’re both craving comfort food forever, and I think I’ve finally nailed it. Today I’m super excited to share my recipe for Healthy Baked Buffalo Cauliflower Wings with you!

I’ve made these a lot lately and they are honestly SO. GOOD. They definitely don’t disappoint in the way that some healthy takes I’ve tried in the past tend to.
