- 3 bananas, very ripe
- 1 cup coconut flour
- ½ cup creamy and all-natural almond butter
- ½ cup pure maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ⅓ cup chocolate chips (I prefer dairy-free) plus optional for the tops You can omit these if you do not like chocolate
Optional:
- 1 tablespoon coconut sugar for the tops
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line the cupcake tin with 8 cupcake liners.
Peel the bananas, add them to a bowl, and mash them well.
Add the remainder of the ingredients except for the chocolate chips, and mix well.
Add in the chocolate chips and give it one more mix.
Fill each cupcake liner almost to the top. These muffins do not rise much so no worries there.
Bake for 20-25 minutes.
Allow them to cool for about 10 minutes and then transfer them to a cooling rack.
Once they are totally cooled, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for 5-6 days.
I have not tried any other flour besides coconut. I would give regular flour a try if you do not like the taste of coconut.
As far as nut butter, I have not tried other varieties but I can imagine peanut butter and cashew butter would work well.
