Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- 3 ripe bananas
- 3 eggs
- 0.25 cup honey
- 0.25 cup coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 cup walnuts, chopped
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease with coconut oil.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas thoroughly using a fork or potato masher.
Add the eggs to the mashed bananas and whisk together until well combined.
Stir in the honey, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth.
In another bowl, combine the almond flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and sea salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined.
Fold in the chopped walnuts, making sure they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and let cool in the muffin tin for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
