I loooooove these! After several modifications mine are now gluten and wheat free, banana free (I don’t like bananas….), not too sweet and spiced up with cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, ginger, salt and vanilla. Double recipe fits in 2 medium size rectangular Pyrex baking dishes. After cooling I slice them in to squares and freeze them. They last beautifully and are absolutely delicious all year round.
The best nutritious yummy treat ever! But my muffins were a total disaster–stuck to the papers and/or muffin cups. So we pour the batter into a pan and make Summer Ragga BARS! Except we eat’em year round and always have some in the freezer for emergencies.
Our family had precisely the sme xperience. We love our “RggaBars!” They are so healthful we have them as breakfast, too!
