Spiced Maple Banana Muffins

January 24, 2011

I’ve been experimenting lately with alternative ways to sweeten our food. I mean, there’s no way around sugar for everything, but as a web designer I’m fascinated (read: borderline obsessed) by the different ways to bake to improve the nutrition of what we eat.
