Banana Bread Muffins.
Banana bread is one of my favorite things in this whole wide world. After being inspired by some banana macadamia nut muffins I made, I knew that I could make some banana bread muffins that were absolutely delicious! So that's what I did. They're also grain-free and gluten-free (and wicked tasty)!
These little muffins taste just like banana bread, but are more portable! They're also super easy to whip up too, which will be great for when I start classes again.
Banana Bread Muffins.
makes 14 muffins
2/3 cup walnuts, chopped
2/3 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
1 cup + 2 Tbsp blanched almond flour
¼ cup organic coconut flour - source
3 ripe bananas, peeled and mashed
2 eggs, room temperature
1/4 cup raw creamy honey
1/3 cup organic coconut oil, melted and cooled
¾ tsp baking soda
½ tsp unrefined sea salt
1 tsp coconut water vinegar or apple cider vinegar or lemon juice
1½ tsp vanilla extract
1½ tsp cinnamon
½ tsp freshly ground nutmeg
toppings - optional
To make your banana bread muffins:
1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees convection. Take out 2 muffin tins and place muffin liners inside.
2. In a large bowl, add nuts, coconut, flours, baking soda, salt; mix to combine.
3. To the same bowl, add eggs, bananas, honey, coconut oil, vinegar, vanilla; mix again to combine.
4. Drop by tablespoons into the muffin tins. Fill 14 muffins full. *This will make 14 full sized muffins as long as there is no batter eaten in the process.
5. Bake for about 30-35 minutes, rotating the pans at 20 minutes for best results. Let cool in pan for 5-10 minutes. Then move muffins to a cooling rack, which helps to firm up their bottoms. Enjoy!
I am such a fan of banana bread, I know I will be making these often! And they are sure to please a crowd, so try bringing them to parties and sharing with friends and family!!

Hey Meagan,
If I want to substitute grass fed butter for the coconut oil, is the quantity still the same?
These look great!
see you soon (in school)!

Hey Carrie! Yes, you can sub them. Butter might be a little bit more "wet" than the coconut oil, but it should work just fine :D
