Nikkis Banana Bread Muffins Healthy Recipes

HEALTHY BANANA BREAD MUFFINS

Steps:

• Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners. Whisk together the whole-wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl.
• Whisk together the coconut oil, brown sugar, maple syrup, vanilla and egg whites in a separate medium bowl until well combined. Stir in the mashed banana. Add the dry ingredients to the wet and stir until combined. Stir in the chopped walnuts if using.
• Fill the lined muffin cups about three-quarters of the way with the batter (a generous 1/4 cup in each; see Cook's Note). Bake on the center rack until a cake tester or toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes, then remove the muffins to a wire rack to cool completely.

NIKKI'S BANANA BREAD MUFFINS- HEALTHY

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350.
• I use my kitchenaid for this -mix melted butter with bananas.
• Add egg, vanilla, baking soda, salt, and Flax seed meal and mix well.
• add flour and the chocolate chips last.
• Pour into sprayed muffin tins, (I use a LARGE muffin tin and this recipe yields 6 large muffins).
• Bake 45 mins or until a tooth pick comes out clean (the 45 mins is for the LARGE muffins).
• Please note: I always add the flax seed meal and I try to remember the chocolate chips because it just gives them a little something extra (they tent to taste a little dry without the chocolate chips). I have omitted the sugar completely since I use VERY ripe bananas (if you want to add sugar it is 1 cup that I started with and then went to 1/2 cup and then reduced to none). I am slowly reducing the butter in this recipe, recently I reduced it to 2 tablespoons per batch. I always double if not triple this recipe!
