Madeleine Shaw's Banana Breakie Bites
Don't be fooled by their name, these banana bites are certainly not just for breakfast. Gluten-free, sugar-free and absolutely scrumptious they're selling like hotcakes in the cafe, with both children and adults alike. We're always on the lookout for healthy treats that actually taste good, and we like them even more when they're easy to make and don't contain lots of expensive, unusual ingredients. These fit the bill perfectly; they contain simple, wholesome ingredients and are sweetened with natural products, not sugar. Below we've shared the recipe, just in case you'd like to make them at home.
