What does LOVE look like in your home? (recipe for healthier banana muffins included)

In our home, Love includes praying together, listening, talking, reading and discussing the Bible together. . . It also includes cooking together, and for each other. In our home, it also means modifying recipes to adapt to Jase's (and our) healthy eating habits.

Banana bread/cake is one of my Mom's specialties, and I like to make banana muffins. Jase first had us change to whole wheat flour, and then he began substituting sugar with honey. So here is our new family recipe:

Banana Muffins

1/2 cup shortening (maybe change to ?)

1 cup honey (original recipe-1 1/2 c. sugar)

2 eggs

2 cups whole wheat flour

1 tsp. baking powder

1/2 tsp. salt

1 cup mashed banana

1/4 cup buttermilk (milk with a little lemon juice)

1 tsp. vanilla

1/2 tsp. soda

1/2 c. chopped pecans (optinal-I don't usually use.)

Mix as listed. Put into greased muffin tins. Bake at 350 degrees 20-25 min.
(cake-30-35 min., bread-45 minutes.)

Love also means. . .

lots and lots of HUGS!

Love means playing like a child.

Love means more grandbabies to come!

I am joining Joanne and showing what Love looks like here in our home! (a little late in getting it published this time. . .will be looking forward to future Wednesdays!)
