Healthy Peanut Butter Banana Muffins
Healthy Peanut Butter Banana Muffins are tender and fluffy, with the perfect balance of peanut butter and banana flavor and dark chocolate chips. They're gluten and dairy free and come together in just one bowl!
Ingredients
- 2 large bananas (1 cup mashed)
- 1/2 cup peanut butter I used natural
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup maple syrup substitute with honey, coconut sugar or your favorite sweetener
- 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk substitute with your favorite milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups oat flour *see notes
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/3 cup dark chocolate chips substitute with your favorite or omit altogether
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line a muffin pan with paper liners. Mash the banana in a large bowl.
- Add the peanut butter, eggs, sugar, almond milk and vanilla extract and whisk thoroughly to combine.
- Add the oat flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt to the wet ingredients and whisk until incorporated, then fold in the chocolate chips.
- Divide the batter evenly between the muffin cups and bake for 17-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or until the top springs back when pressed gently.
- Cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes, then remove the muffins from the pan and cool completely. Enjoy!
Notes
- *I purchase this oat flour, which comes in a package of 6 as I use it often. No oat flour on hand? Simply process old fashioned rolled oats in a blender or food processor until finely ground!
- Store muffins in an air tight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to one week. You may also freeze them for up to 3 months.
- I used natural peanut butter in this recipe, which included just peanuts and salt in the ingredients list. You can certainly use your favorite brand, but the texture of the muffins may vary slightly.
