🩺 Today’s Patient: Go Nanas Salted Caramel Banana Bread & Muffin Mix
Sometimes a new patient rolls into clinic that makes you raise an eyebrow… and sometimes they make you grab a second muffin.
Today’s patient is Go Nanas Salted Caramel Banana Bread Mix, a gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan, and nut-free baking mix. This brand is also women-owned and non-GMO, and it carries the Kosher symbol (the circle U).
I purchased a three-pack on Amazon with Original, Chocolate Chip, and Salted Caramel flavors. Today we’re putting Salted Caramel on the exam table.

MyPlate Teaching
These muffins land mostly in the grain and carbohydrate category.
To balance your plate:
• Pair with protein (eggs, yogurt alternative, nut butter if tolerated)
• Add fruit for extra fiber
• Enjoy as a breakfast or snack carbohydrate
Example balanced breakfast:
🍌 Muffin
🥚 Protein source
🍓 Fresh fruit
E: Eating 👩🍳
Preparation
For the Salted Caramel mix you need:
• 3 small ripe bananas
• 1 tablespoon maple syrup
• 2 tablespoons milk of choice
• 2 tablespoons oil
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350°F
Mix ingredients
Bake 20–30 minutes
I greased my muffin tin with avocado oil instead of using paper liners.
I also used my cordless KitchenAid mixer to mix the batter and an ice cream scoop to portion it.
Clinical mistake on my end:
I made them too large, so I only got 9 muffins instead of 12.
Because they were bigger, mine baked for 25 minutes.
Taste
These muffins came out golden brown on the outside with a light crisp edge.
Inside?
Soft, fluffy, and moist.
Some gluten-free muffins can be dry… these were not.
Texture
✔ Slight crisp outside
✔ Very soft interior
✔ Melty butterscotch chips
The butterscotch chips were honestly the star of the show.
Real Life Review Moment
My husband was so eager to try them he grabbed two before I could even take pictures for the blog.
That might be the fastest unofficial Rhythm Rating data collection I’ve ever seen.
A: Accessibility 🛒
I purchased these on Amazon.
My three-pack cost $29.99 and included:
• Original Banana Bread Mix
• Chocolate Chip Mix
• Salted Caramel Mix
Each bag is around 8.9–12.3 oz depending on flavor.
One note: my order took almost a month to arrive, which is longer than most pantry items.
The brand is also distributed in Chicago, Illinois, which happens to be my home state.

When a gluten-free muffin disappears before the photos are taken…
That’s usually a good clinical sign.
T: Tell Others & Tips 📣
✔ These are great for quick breakfasts
✔ Freeze extra muffins for easy snacks
✔ Pair with protein to balance blood sugar
Nutrition tip from clinic:
Banana breads and muffins are often carbohydrate-heavy, so pairing them with protein helps keep you full longer.
