Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/3 cup gluten-free flour I like to use King Arthurs Gluten-Free Flour
  • 1 scoop of vanilla protein powder optional I like Truvani
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 cup rough chopped raw walnuts
  • 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 3 very ripe bananas
  • 1/3 cup melted coconut oil
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup vegan chocolate chips

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°
  2. In a large bowl, add all the dry ingredients (flour, baking soda, cinnamon, protein powder, salt).
  3. In another large bowl, add the bananas and mash them with a fork. Add the egg, coconut oil, syrup, vanilla extract and whisk.
  4. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Whisk.
  5. Add 1/2 cup chocolate chips and the walnuts and mix using a rubber spatula.
  6. Pour the batter evenly into a muffin pan. Top with remaining chocolate chips and bake for about 18-20 minutes depending on your oven or until you insert a toothpick in the center and the pick comes out clean.
  7. Allow to cool or at least 15 minutes and cool.
