The Best Banana Muffins

Banana Muffins

 

Does anyone else have a freezer full of frozen bananas?  I feel like my kids go through phases where they eat bananas all the time, and then no one will touch them and I still continue buying them out of habit.  If you know me well, you know that I'm not a waster, so into the freezer they go.  I like to freeze them in sandwich bags already in individual portions.  I separate the bananas in case I want to pull out one or a half of a banana for a smoothie.  Ok, here are the details for the yummiest banana muffins!

 

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup coconut or almond flour (they both taste amazing)
  • 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1 cup old fashioned oats
  • 1/4 cup ground flaxseeds
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 eggs
  • 3 overly ripe mashed bananas
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1/3 cup coconut oil
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/3 cup chopped walnuts

Equipment needed:

Directions:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit
  • First you want to mix the dry ingredients together: Flours, flax seeds, oats, brown sugar, salt & spices.  Set this aside.
  • Measure out a 1/3 cup of coconut oil and melt in the microwave, between 40-45 seconds.
  • Now we're going to mix the wet ingredients: Egg, milk, bananas, coconut oil, vanilla.
  • Add the wet ingredients into the dry and mix until combined.  I use a wooden spoon.  
  • Once mixed then add the walnuts
  • Pour into silicone liners and fill about 3/4 way full
  • Bake for 14-15 minutes, or until toothpick comes out clean
  • Makes roughly 18 muffins

Now try not to eat them all in one day!  Happy baking!
