Banana Bread Mini Muffins

Last Monday, I decided I was going to make my mom breakfast for Mother's Day. I had found the perfect recipe for mini muffins*. I got up early Sunday morning and went downstairs to start working on the breakfast. They didn't take very long to make, and they were delicious! This recipe is definitely a keeper! I did tweak it just a little, due to mom's allergies to dairy.

Banana Bread Mini Muffins

Makes 12 Muffins 

Ingredients

3 ripe bananas
2 eggs
1/2 cup full-fat greek yogurt (I used coconut milk yogurt)
1/3 cup honey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour (as I didn't have whole wheat flour on hand, I just used regular all-purpose flour)
1 teaspoon baking soda

Toppings

strawberries, diced
1 cup dark chocolate chip (I used mini semi-sweet chocolate chips; I also didn't measure, lol)
blueberries
walnut, chopped

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (180 degrees Celsius)
2. In a large bowl, mash the bananas into a fine paste using a fork
3. Add the eggs and whisk together until well incorporated
4. Add in the Greek yogurt, honey, and vanilla extract, then mix
5. Pour the flour over the wet mixture then sprinkle in the baking soda
6. Using a spatula, fold the wet and dry ingredients together until the dry bits of the flour have disappeared
7. Using a medium ice cream scoop, portion the batter evenly into a greased muffin tin
8. Top the muffins with your choice of toppings (I liked the walnut the best, and blueberry walnut was delicious as well)
9. Bake for 20 minutes, until the muffins have risen and set
10. Unmold tray and serve

These muffins were so good!

Q&A!!

So, my lovely new friend, Sarah Grace, gave me a very good idea for a blog post! A Q&A!! I am super excited about this! Also, Ellen from  Ellen's Musings  is doing one at the same time, so that should be fun to do it alongside her! However, she is also doing assumptions, so that is extra cool! Ask me questions in the comments below, and I will be answering them next Thursday! Please don't ask me my birthday, but pretty much all other questions are good to ask (if one happens to be too personal, I just won't answer it). Have fun! Also, I know some people might be a little confused on how to pronounce my name, lol. It's pronounced like "Kaylee" NOT "Calley." I know, it is different, but I like it! Btw, my Dad wanted to spell it Caelea (My mom vetoed that, lol) My middle name would have made that spelling even more confusing then it already is (heyyyyy that's a question you can ask "What's your middle name" ;))

Top 7 Questions Homeschoolers Are Asked

 Hey y'all! As most of y'all know by now, I am homeschooled, and have been my entire life. I've gotten A LOT of questions about being homeschooled. This post is meant to be funny, and there is absolutely no shade meant to be thrown on anyone!! Please don't take these too seriously! Here are my Top 7 Questions Homeschoolers Are Asked. 1. How do you have a social life/Do you have friends? Surprisingly, I get this one all the time.  I really don't understand. Yes, I have friends!! Church is a great way to meet people. If you play sports, there's another way (and yes, before you ask, homeschoolers do play sports.) to meet great people. Also, if you have friends of friends, often times you meet the nicest people that way. 2. Do you get to do school in your pajamas? This has many different answers depending on who you talk to. For me personally, I do not wear my pajamas to school because I have to get up, get ready, and be downstairs to start school by 8:00. But ye...

I'm Back!!

Hey y'all! I sincerely apologize for not posting for almost 3 months . Has it really been that long? Yes, yes it has. I did not intend on abandoning this blog for that long, but here we are, two and a half months later. I just now have seen the comments asking where I'm at, and I apologize for not responding to those. However, I am back and I don't intend on being gone that long again. Thank you so much for your patience!  So, where have I been? Well, to be honest, I've been living my life. Nothing drastic happened, and I celebrated my seventeenth birthday a couple months ago :). I really don't have an explanation as to why I haven't posted, but I am sorry! I had no idea the last time I posted that it would be the last time for quite awhile. Sheesh!! I plan on posting more "devotional" type posts in the future, so stay tuned :). School has been quite busy these days, and I got behind at one point, so I am just now *finally* getting caught back up.  Y...
