Description

These healthy banana gingerbread muffins are made with almond flour and only sweetened with bananas - no sugar added.  They're moist and tender with a mild gingerbread flavor.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup mashed ripe bananas (245g)
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup avocado oil
  • 1 Tbsp molasses
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 cups blanched almond flour (180g)
  • 1/3 cup tapioca starch (42g)
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp ground clove
  • 3/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.  Line a muffin pan with 12 paper or silicone muffin liners.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the wet muffin ingredients.  This includes the mashed banana, eggs, avocado oil, molasses and vanilla.
  3. Add in the dry ingredients: almond flour, tapioca starch, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, clove, baking soda and salt.  Whisk until well combined.
  4. Pour the batter into your lined muffin pan, filling each slot about 3/4 full.
  5. Place the muffins in your preheated oven and bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes.
  6. After baking, let the muffins cool about 5 minutes in the pan, then transfer them to a wire cooling rack.
  7. Store in an airtight container in the fridge, up to one week.  Or in a baggie in the freezer, up to one month.
