all-purpose flour – 1
cup (120 g)
4.
Eggs – 2 large
5.

oil ¼ cup (60 ml),

(60ml)

powder – 1 ½ teaspoon

13. Chopped walnuts or chocolate chips – ½ cup (optional)
14. Chia seeds or flaxseeds – 1 tbsp. (optional for added texture
and nutrients)
Preparation Steps:
1. Prepare the Oven:
Set
the oven to bake at 350°F (180°C). Prepare muffin pans by placing paper cups in
them or by smearing a little of coconut oil or non-stick spray into the pan.
2. Mash the bananas:
Peel
and place the ripe bananas in a big bowl and mash to a smooth paste. The
smoother the bananas, the better. This is because the sweeter the bananas, the
sweeter the muffins will be.
3. Combine Wet Ingredients:
In
a bowl, combine mashed bananas with eggs, melted coconut oil, honey or maple
syrup, vanilla extract, and almond milk. Mix everything together until
homogeneous.
4. Mix dry ingredients:
In
a different bowl, combine the gluten-free oats, gluten-free flour, baking
powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.
5. Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures:
Slowly
incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet banana mixture by folding in the
batter. Overmixing is not advisable because it causes the muffins to be heavy.
6. Add Optional Mix-ins:
At
this point, if using walnuts, chocolate chips, chia seeds, or flaxseeds,
incorporate them as well.
7. Spoon into Muffin Tin:
Distribute
the batter appropriately into muffin cups, each about ¾ full of the batter.
8. Bake:
After
preparing the batter, pour it into muffin tins and place in the preheated oven
for about twenty to twenty-five minutes. The muffins are ready when the
toothpick inserted at the center comes out clean and the browned surface has an
even golden color.
9. Cool and Serve:
When
finished, allow the muffins to rest in the tin for 10 minutes before moving
them onto a cooling rack, where they may completely cool.
Servings:
The
measurement in this method makes 12 standard-size bruises.
