Recipe: Berry Mint Icy Poles

Phew, we’ve made it to the last Meatless Monday linkup for the year! I can’t wait to see what you’ve all been cooking in the lead-up to Christmas!

Recipe: Banana Date Muffins

Today’s recipe is actually thanks to a request from the lovely Ingrid of IngStyle who, after thoroughly enjoying a banana date muffin in a cafe, asked if I had a recipe for some she could make at home! It’s a combo I’ve enjoyed before but never made myself, so I did some playing around and here we are – my banana date muffins! Hopefully they’re as good as your cafe experience Ingrid!
