Yay! I have made healthy substitutions to banana muffin recipes enough to find my constant! I'm happy to finally find a moment to write it down for future reference. With a 6 week old baby in the family again it is hard to get a moment to shower much less type out a recipe....but I needed a break from watching Gilmore Girls while I breast feed.
OMG days like today. The kind of day that the baby, for whatever reason, does not nap and insist on being held while she is awake. Days like today I love having these banana muffins on hand to grab for some calories and nutrition.
Healthful Banana Muffins
3 large bananas
1/3 cup + 2tbs agave nectar
1 egg
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/3 cup coconut oil
heat oven to 375
1. Mash bananas with the agave nectar and the egg
2. Stir in the melted coconut oil
3. Whisk together the dry ingredients and then stir into the banana mixture. The mixture will be lumpy, do not over mix or your muffins will be tough. Stir until just combined
4. Spoon into muffin papers and bake for 15-20 minutes
Makes 12-13 muffins
