Tips to Keep the Points Low:

  • Use ripe bananas: Ripe bananas provide natural sweetness, allowing you to use less added sweetener.
  • Use zero-calorie sweeteners: Sukrin:1 or another zero-calorie sweetener helps keep the sugar content and points low.
  • Opt for mini chocolate chips: Using mini chocolate chips can help distribute the chocolate flavor throughout the muffins without using as many chips.
