Description

These almond four muffins come together in one bowl and are grain-free and gluten-free!


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 3 bananas, mashed (about 1 cup mashed)
  • 2 eggs, at room temperature
  • 2 tbsp avocado oil
  • 1/3 cup coconut sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 1/4 cups almond flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F and line a muffin pan with liners.
  2.  In a large bowl, mash the bananas until smooth. Add the eggs, avocado oil, coconut sugar, and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  4. Add the dry ingredients to the wet and gently mix until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  5. Spoon the batter into the muffin liners, filling about 3/4 full.
  6. Bake for 20-24 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean.
  7. Let cool for a few minutes, then enjoy!

Notes

  • Overripe spotty bananas work best.
  • Don’t overmix the batter to keep the muffins light and fluffy.
  • Line the muffin tin with parchment or silicone liners to prevent sticking.
  • Let muffins cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes to set/
  • To make banana bread, bake the batter in an 8×4 inch loaf pan for 45–55 minutes.
