Helpful hints
- These muffins are best for kidney patients who do not need a potassium restricted diet since the banana, peanut butter and chocolate are high in potassium.
- If you use a reduced-fat peanut butter if will add approximately 5 grams of carbohydrate per serving.
- This muffin is a good protein snack. Ask your dietitian if you need to add a phosphate binder if prescribed.
