Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 3 large Ripe bananas
- 3 large Eggs
- 0.25 cup Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup Coconut oil
- 0.5 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 bit of coconut oil.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Stir well to ensure the baking soda is evenly distributed.
In another bowl, mash the ripe bananas until a smooth puree forms.
Add the eggs, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and melted coconut oil to the mashed bananas. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined without overmixing.
Fold in the chopped walnuts, making sure they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin tins, filling each about three-quarters full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your paleo-friendly banana nut muffins as a healthy and flavorful snack or breakfast!
