Ingredients
- 3 banana ripe
- 2 eggs at room temperature
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/4 cup oil I used avocado oil
- 1/4 cup maple syrup or agave syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 1/2 cups almond flour 8.5oz
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/3 cup chocolate chips I used dark, optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). Line a 12-count muffin pan with liners.
- In a large bowl, mash bananas. Add eggs, oil, vanilla, cinnamon, and maple syrup. Stir until the ingredients are combined and fluffy.
- Add all dry ingredients to the bowl - almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Stir until they are combined. Do not overmix.
- Add half of the chocolate chips and fold them in the batter gently.
- Spoon the batter evenly into each liner on the muffin pan. Top each muffin with a few chocolate chips.
- Bake in preheated oven for 20-22 minutes. Use a toothpick to test whether the center of the muffins is done.
- Remove from muffin pan and let the muffins cool completely on a wire rack, and enjoy! Store muffins in an airtight container.

Notes
- Keto Variation: I am not an expert on keto sugars; however, here is a great resource you can use for maple syrup conversion. Skip the chocolate chips. All other ingredients in this recipe are keto-friendly.
