There are a million plus one things to do with this basic vegan and allergy savvy banana muffin: add frosting and call it a cupcake, add chocolate chips and call it delicious, fill with jelly and call it sweet breakfast… This is a one bowl recipe and I keep mentioning since it is egg free, dairy free, nut free, soy free and sesame seed free. I like baking it in my heart shaped pans to look elegant or I use festive cupcake papers to create extra fun.

It’s a lovely recipe!
One slight issue is that you’ve listed it under the vegan tag. However, because you have honey in the cake, it means it is not vegan. Honey is made by bees, and vegans don’t eat honey because of that.
