Banana "Cupcakes"
Leon,
Today was a baking day! We both did our chores, I folded and put away all the laundry and you picked up all your toys and put them in your toy boxes. Then it was time to bake a yummy treat! I had a bunch of overly ripe bananas, so I thought banana bread would be great to make. Remembering the last time I made banana bread I remembered you wouldn't eat it. So I thought "Well you love cupcakes, so why not make mini banana muffins and call them cupcakes?" This worked, because as soon as I pulled them out of the oven you yelled "Cupcakes!" You ate three mini muffins thinking you were getting a special treat, when really they are super healthy! I did cheat a little by putting a thin layer of cream cheese icing on the tops of each muffin. It is amazing how the appearance and presentation of food can be a make or break deal with kids. If calling these healthy muffins "cupcakes" will get you to eat them, then that is what they will be. Enjoy your "cupcakes" my picky little eater. I love you Leon!
~Love, your Mama
