Gluten Free Banana-Nut Muffins
- 4 eggs, beaten
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil (softened)
- 1/4 Cup honey or pecan syrup (or mix them to make 1/4 cup)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 ripe banana, mashed
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/3 C coconut flour
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 C chopped nuts (I like pecans, but walnuts are good with banana, too.)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In separate bowls, mix wet ingredients and dry ingredients. Fold dry into wet. Add nuts. Fill muffin cups with batter.
Bake for 12-16 minutes or until golden on top. When
toothpick comes out clean, they’re done. Enjoy!
*Update: Made these again today and added the cinnamon. Added a little extra flavor. I also dropped in about 1/4 cup of chopped carrots for some added crunch.
It's a very forgiving recipe, so play around with it. If you come up with anything interesting, please let me know. I'm thinking of adding a little pineapple in place of the banana to see how that comes out. Have fun!
