These Weight Watchers Chocolate Banana muffins are so good! Seriously, they are pretty darn amazing. 

Most of you know that I’ve been following the Weight Watchers plan for a while now.

One of my favorite things about this plan is that I can pretty much eat anything I want!

Sometimes that means planning lower point meals or getting creative with how I cook. These Weight Watcher friendly chocolate banana muffins are the perfect way to fix that chocolate craving without using up all your daily points! 

Weight Watcher Friendly Chocolate Banana Muffins

I don’t know about you but every night after dinner, I have a major sweet tooth. Usually, I have one of my Built Bars but I’ve been getting burnt out on having one every single night, so I needed a change. 

These muffins have definitely hit the spot. Not only are they so delicious but they are only 3 WW points! 

Eating one of these in the evening always hits the spot. 

However, I want to caution you that it’s easy to eat more than one, which would not be good for your daily points. 

Thankfully, these muffins freeze up really nicely.

After baking a batch, I freeze them all in individual baggies. I usually take one out in the morning so that it’s defrosted by the time evening rolls around. 

Freezing the muffins also helps keep the kids from eating them all as well! 

To make this recipe, you’ll want to make sure you have a few things on hand. 

• Oats
• Bananas
• Eggs
• Brown sugar
• Nonfat Greek yogurt
• Vanilla
• Baking powder
• Baking soda
• Unsweetened cocoa powder
• Chocolate chips
