  • 1 t. vanilla extract
  • 1 T. coconut flour

  • 3 oz. chocolate chips Enjoy Life makes a dairy free, vegan option

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and line a muffin tin with liners or prepare the pan with cooking spray.
  • Peel and mash your bananas in a large mixing bowl.
  • Add the almond butter, maple syrup, egg, and vanilla extract to the bowl with the bananas. 
  • Whisk briskly with a fork into a fairly smooth batter. You will still see lumps, though.
  • Add the coconut flour, baking soda, and salt and mix until thoroughly combined.
  • Gently fold in the chocolate chips but don’t overmix.
  • Divide the batter between the 8 muffin cups and place in the pre-heated oven to bake until cooked through and puffy, approximately 18-20 minutes. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.
  • Remove from the oven and allow muffins to cool for 10-15 minutes before removing from the muffin tin to serve. Enjoy!
