Gluten Free Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins
These are the perfect gluten free banana chocolate chip muffins. They are super moist, easy to make and will be a hit with your kids. Plus there is no added sugar, the sweetness is provided by the bananas and the chocolate chips.
Ingredients
- 3 bananas medium sized, the riper the better
- 3 eggs large sized
- 1/3 cup coconut oil melted
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups almond flour or almond meal
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 3/4 cup chocolate chips regular, dairy free, sugar free
Instructions
- Heat Oven and Prepare Muffin Tray - Heat oven to 180C | 350F and line a 12-cup muffin tray with paper baking cases (if you are using a metal tray)
- Prepare Wet Ingredients - In a large bowl, combine the bananas, eggs, coconut oil and vanilla extract.
- Add Dry Ingredients - Then add the almond meal, baking powder and cinnamon powder to the wet ingredients, mixing until well combined.
- Add Chocolate Chips - Finally, add all the chocolate chips and fold through the mixture.
- Divide Mixture - Spoon mixture evenly into the baking cases or muffin holes (if using a silicone tray).
- Bake - Bake for approximately 15-18 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean.
- Allow to Cool - Set aside in the pan for 10 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack.
Notes
- You can use either a metal baking tray with baking cases or my personal favourite, a silicone muffin tray
- You can use any chocolate chip you like - dark, milk, dairy free, sugar free, carob, cacao nibs.
- Use room temperature eggs for the best outcome
- Store for 3-4 days in an air-tight container
