BANANA CACAO MUFFINS

BANANA CACAO MUFFINS



Ingredients

2 ripe bananas, mashed
1/4 cup honey
3 eggs
1/3 cup coconut oil, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup almond butter
1/2 cup coconut flour
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/8 cup cacao nibs


Preheat oven to 350F

In a mixing bowl, mash bananas until smooth, then add eggs, honey, coconut oil, vanilla and almond butter and mix thoroughly.

Add coconut flour and cinnamon, mix really well.

Let batter sit for 5-10 minutes (tangent: I had to go feed Indy in the middle of making these & I found that when the coconut flour sat for a few minutes, it absorbed the liquids really well and the muffins turned out with better consistency … who knew? trying to bake and manage a baby at the same time, would help me discover new cooking techniques!)

Add in baking soda and cacao nibs. Mix until baking soda is mixed through.

Fill muffin tins all the way. This made 9 muffins. You don’t need muffin wrappers for these, the muffins slide right out of the tray.

Bake for 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Remove muffins from the muffin pan or tip on their side and let cool.
