Instructions
- First, preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Heavily spray a muffin pan with nonstick spray.
- In a mixing bowl, add mashed bananas, eggs, creamy nut butter and vanilla extract. Stir to combine.
- Then, add in coconut sugar, almond flour, protein powder and baking soda. Stir to combine.
- Fold in dark chocolate chips.
- Scoop batter into muffin cavities. Fill each one almost to the top.
- Bake for 13 to 14 minutes or until toothpick inserted into muffins comes out clean.
- Finally, remove from oven. Allow muffins to cool for 10 minutes in pan before carefully removing from pan.
Notes
- Use ripe bananas for best results.
- Use a creamy nut butter that is made with only nuts and salt. Any added sugars, oils or preservatives will alter the texture.
- Any vanilla protein powder will work. I used Nuzest Vanilla which is both Vegan and gluten free. Chocolate protein powder would work too, but would change the flavor and look of these muffins.
- Bake muffins until toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Store covered at room temperature for up to 3 days.
