Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Grease a muffin tin with cooking spray and then dust each space with cocoa powder.
- In a small bowl, mix the flour, cornstarch, baking soda, salt, cocoa powder and chocolate chips.
- Stir well to combine.
- On a plate, mash the bananas well.
- In another bowl, whisk together the egg and Greek yogurt.
- Stir in the melted coconut oil (make sure it is not too hot. slightly cooled is best after melting), vanilla extract, brown sugar, and the mashed bananas.
- Combine wet and dry ingredients and mix until just combined. (avoid over-mixing which makes the muffins denser)
- Separate the batter evenly among the 12 muffin tins.
- Bake for 18-23 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted into the center.
- Allow to cool for about 10 minutes and remove from the muffin tin. (gently cut around the edges with a butter knife to help them out)
Notes
- For an even lower calorie muffin, substitute the coconut oil for an equal amount of unsweetened applesauce.
- Add a favorite nut, like ¼ cup of pecans or walnuts.
- Serve them warm by reheating for about 10 seconds in a microwave.
