Ingredients
  

  • 2 ripe bananas
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil
  • 1 1/2 cups Bob's Red Mill Gluten-Free All Purpose Flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1/2 cup dairy free semi-sweet chocolate chips see my blog post for information on cocoa butter, a common ingredient in chocolate
  • 1/4 cup walnuts chopped

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350º.
  • Peel and mash the bananas in a medium-sized mixing bowl. The bananas should be a paste-like consistency with few lumps. I find that using a potato masher makes this very easy.
  • Add the maple syrup, 1/4 cup of coconut oil, gluten-free flour, baking powder and vanilla. Stir to combine. The batter should be similar in consistency to thick pancake batter.
  • Stir in the chocolate chips and, if desired, the chopped walnuts.
  • Lightly grease the muffin tin with coconut oil.
  • Fill each of the muffin compartments 2/3rds full with the muffin batter.
  • Bake for 18 minutes. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into a muffin. The toothpick should come out cleanly.
