Ingredients

  • 1 cup banana mashed (about 3 small bananas, 264g)
  • ½ cup light brown sugar (100g)
  • ¼ cup unsweetened non-dairy milk (60g / 60ml / 2 oz.)
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened applesauce (38g)
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil (26g)
  • 1 tablespoon white vinegar (15g)
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract (6g)

  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt (1g)
  • ½ cup walnuts chopped

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a muffin tin with baking cups, then spritz with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside. 
  2. In a large mixing bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt together. Whisk until combined, then set aside.
  3. In another large bowl, combine the mashed banana, sugar, non-dairy milk, oil and applesauce, vinegar and vanilla. Using a hand mixer or a whisk, beat until light and fluffy.
  4. Sprinkle in the dry ingredients, and stir until just combined.
  5. Add the walnuts, folding into the batter until just combined.
  6. Using a cookie scoop or a spoon, dollop the batter into the prepared baking cups. You can use about 3 heaping tablespoons in each muffin cup to make 12 muffins here.
  7. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through. (An inserted toothpick should remove cleanly to tell you they’re done.)
  8. Enjoy warm!
