I've never heard of anything "hummingbird" food related and this past week I've seen both a Hummingbird donut and Hummingbird cake! When I found out what they were (banana + pineapple) I was on a mission to come up with some kind of healthy hummingbird concoction, and Bye George, I've done it! Let me introduce you to my Hummingbird Protein Muffins! As you will see in the picture, mine are in the muffin top form which I prefer way over muffins. Not only are they easier to stack and freeze, but you can throw them in the toaster to warm them up! I've seen muffin top pans at Hobby Lobby, Michaels and of course, Amazon.
