Sometimes I chuckle a bit to myself when I look online and seeing popular bloggers with hundreds of thousands of followers sharing over simplistic recipes for foods or dishes that really are “common sense” to the majority of the population. (Reminds me of this from Paula Deen!! ? The comments are the best!)

In regards to these “common sense” recipes, we’re talking things like a ‘recipe’ for PB&J. A ‘recipe’ for yogurt with granola on top. A ‘recipe’ for scrambled eggs.

Granted, not everyone is a whiz in the kitchen, but there are certain foods that pretty much everyone knows to make in some capacity or another.

While I do have a slight problem “common sense” recipes, I don’t have a problem with recipes that are super EASY to make. Sometimes the easiest recipes require the most creativity. Usually, they bring together a few (or in this case only 2!) ingredients that wouldn’t normally go together or you wouldn’t think could be combined to make something. I have tried a lot of 2 ingredient recipes over the years, some gems and some fails, but I’ve always been pleasantly surprised at the how a recipe made from only 2 foods can turn into something amazing!

Here are a few of my favorite 2 ingredient recipes I’ve tried over the years…

Banana + egg (mixed and fried) = paleo pancakes

Greek yogurt + rolled oats (mixed) = overnight oatmeal 

Dates + chopped nuts (mixed)  = raw energy bites

Banana + oats (mixed and baked) = banana cookies 

Pumpkin + oats (mixed and baked) = pumpkin cookies

Self-rising flour + Greek yogurt = pizza dough 

Peanut butter + frozen banana (blended) = peanut butter banana ice cream

Oreos + melted white chocolate (mixed and refrigerated) = white chocolate Oreo bark 

Pumpkin + boxed spice cake mix (mixed and baked) = pumpkin spice muffins

Coconut butter + melted chocolate chips (mixed)  = magic chocolate shell for frozen desserts 

Chicken breast + 1 jar of salsa (mixed and put in the crock pot) = shredded salsa chicken 

Chicken breast + Italian dressing (mixed and put in the crock pot) = Italian chicken 

And today, I have a NEW favorite to add to the list! A bite-sized snack with all the flavor of a freshly baked loaf of banana bread without needing to turn on the oven, crack an egg, or even BUY BANANAS!

My 2 Ingredient Banana Bread Bites are vegan, gluten-free, grain-free, and even PALEO friendly. They’re made with one of my favorite baking mixes from Simple Mills (I also love their crackers…but beware, they are HIGHLY addicting).

I love Simple Mills products because of their super simple, whole foods ingredients. This is what’s in the Banana Bread Mix for example…

Almonds

Banana

Organic Coconut Sugar

Arrowroot 

Organic Coconut Flour 

Baking Soda

Sea Salt 

So simple…yet so delicious!

(And no, this isn’t a sponsored post…I just REALLY like Simple Mills products!)

Combine that wonderful baking mix with some vanilla almond butter and you’ve got delicious Banana Bread Bites in only a few minutes.
