Recipe type: Muffins
Cuisine: Breakfast
Ingredients
- -2 flax eggs (2 tbs flax meal & 5 tbs water=2 eggs) or 2 small eggs (I used the flax eggs since my son has an egg allergy)
- -2 medium ripe bananas
- -3 Tbsp honey (You could use maple syrup too)
- -3 Tbsp unsweetened plain almond milk
- -1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- -1 tsp baking powder
- -1 cup almond meal flour
- -1/2 cup + 2 Tbsp oat flour (I ground up some Bob's Red Mill Rolled Oats I had)
- -Optional toppings: You can spread some almond butter on them with sliced banana, but I enjoyed them plain and so did the kids.
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and either use paper liners or I sprayed my tin and they came out great!
- In a large bowl, prepare flax egg by mixing flaxseed + water and letting it rest for a few minutes.
- Next add bananas and mash. Add maple syrup or honey, baking powder, vanilla, almond milk and stir.
- Add almond meal and oat flour and stir once more.
- Bake. It calls for 25-30 minutes but mine were done around 20 minutes. My mini muffins took around 15 minutes. So check early with a toothpick. They become firm to the touch with a little give.
- Remove and try to let them rest and cool off. Yeah right!! I was getting them out and eating them warm! Yummy!!!
- You can store them in an airtight container if you have any left. 😉 Or freeze them, if you made a larger batch.
- Servings for this are 8 large muffins. I doubled the batch and got 24 mini muffins and 10 large muffins. My kids love the mini muffins and they are the perfect size for my 18 month old.
