Ingredients

Instructions

These muffins are so easy to make!

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.

Mix bananas, vanilla and eggs together. Add melted coconut oil, sugars and honey. Mix until blended.

In a separate bowl mix together baking powder, salt, cinnamon, almond flour, gluten free flour and oats. Add almond milk to batter and then add this dry mixture to batter ½ cup at a time mixing until the dry mixture is just blended in. Mix until ingredients are just blended together. Do not over mix or the dough gets tough and doesn't rise as well.

Place batter into a 12 muffin pan. The batter will fill all the way to the top of your liners and the tops will rise quite a bit. If you wanted smaller muffins you could make 24 instead. But, let's be honest, the muffin tops are delicious and who wants to miss out on those.

Bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes. 

Let cool and then store in the refrigerator for up to five days.

Frequently Asked Questions

How should I store my banana muffins?

These gluten free banana muffins are best stored in an air tight container. You can leave them on your counter for up to 3 days and then it's best to move them to the refrigerator to keep them fresh.

These muffins also freeze really well. I like to freeze them in individual bags so I have something quick to put in lunches or to take out for breakfast or a snack.

If you don't mind these not being dairy free you can substitute butter for the coconut oil.
