Ingredients

  • 3 medium banana(s) mashed (1 cup for 12 servings)
  • 3 tablespoon(s) honey, raw
  • 1/4 cup(s) coconut oil melted
  • 1/2 teaspoon(s) vanilla
  • 3 large egg(s)
  • 1/4 cup(s) coconut flour
  • 1/4 cup(s) cocoa powder, unsweetened
  • 1/2 teaspoon(s) baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon(s) sea salt
  • 1/4 cup(s) chocolate chips, semi-sweet optional
  • 1 package(s) paper muffin liners

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 F and line a muffin tin with paper baking cups.
  2. Place the liquid ingredients (mashed bananas, honey, melted coconut oil, vanilla, and eggs into a food processor or mixing bowl and mix or whisk together until combined.
  3. Add the dry ingredients (coconut flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and sea salt) to the wet ingredients, and mix together until thoroughly combined.
  4. Spoon batter into each cup, dividing evenly between the 12 cups.
  5. If desired, sprinkle the tops with chocolate chips.
  6. Bake muffins for 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out mostly clean. They will still feel a little soft at the bottom when they’re done, but will firm up as they cool.
  7. Cool on a wire rack, and store in an airtight container in the fridge. In joy!
