- Make It Dairy-Free: If you’re lactose intolerant or following a dairy-free lifestyle, you can easily substitute the Greek yogurt for a dairy-free yogurt or use applesauce in place of the dairy altogether.
- Add Extra Veggies: For added nutrition, you can fold in some shredded zucchini or carrot into the batter—just make sure to squeeze out the extra moisture from the zucchini before adding it.
🍌 Why These Muffins Are Great for You:
- Bananas are rich in potassium, fiber, and antioxidants, making them great for heart health and digestion.
