Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 2 large Ripe bananas
- 3 Large eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Erythritol or granulated sweetener of choice
- 0.25 cup Melted coconut oil
- 0.75 cup Chopped walnuts
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease with a nonstick cooking spray.
In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon. Set the dry ingredients aside.
In another bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Add the eggs, vanilla extract, erythritol, and melted coconut oil. Whisk until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the banana mixture, mixing gently until just combined.
Fold in the chopped walnuts, being careful not to overmix the batter.
Evenly distribute the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy the muffins warm or store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
