  • 3 TB coconut sugar (or any kind of sugar)
  • 1 TB maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup coconut milk (or dairy milk)

  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Grease a muffin pan with butter or pull out a silicone muffin mold.

Melt the butter and allow to cool.

Combine egg, sugar, maple syrup, coconut milk and vanilla using a whisk. Break the bananas into small pieces and mash, using a fork or potato masher, into the liquid ingredients until pretty well combined. *If the bananas are overripe this will be super easy. But don’t worry, you can make delicious muffins with yellow bananas too!

Sift the almond flour and combine it with the oats, arrowroot, baking powder, baking soda and salt.

Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingreents and fold just to combine. Fold in the chocolate.

Fill muffin pans and bake 30 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through cooking.

Remove from the oven and allow to sit in the pan for 10 minutes. Un mold the muffins and allow to cool (if you can!). Enjoy!
