Ingredients
  

  • 2 bananas Medium – Ripe
  • 1 tbsp flaxseed meal Combine with water to make 1 batch Flax Egg
  • tbsp water Combine with flaxseed meal to make 1 batch Flax Egg
  • tsp baking soda
  • ½ cup coconut sugar Or sub organic brown sugar
  • 3 tbsp maple syrup Or or sub agave nectar
  • ¼ cup tahini Fresh/drippy or sub other nut or seed butter of choice
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp avocado oil Or melted coconut oil or vegan butter. If oil-free, sub more nut or seed butter of choice and reduce dry ingredients slightly to compensate for thicker batter
  • ½ cup cocoa powder
  • ¾ cup rolled oats Gluten-free
  • cup almond flour
  • ¼ cup dark chocolate chips Vegan

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 176° and line a standard muffin tin with paper cupcake wrappers (if subbing a different size pan, adjust cook time as needed).
  • In a large mixing bowl add banana, flax egg (flaxseed and water) and mash to combine, leaving only a few chunky pieces. You want it pretty smooth.
    2 bananas, 1 tbsp flaxseed meal, 2½ tbsp water
  • Add baking soda, coconut sugar, maple syrup, tahini, sea salt, vanilla, and avocado oil and whisk vigorously to combine. Then add cocoa powder and whisk again to combine.
    1½ tsp baking soda, ½ cup coconut sugar, 3 tbsp maple syrup, ¼ cup tahini, ¼ tsp salt, ½ tsp pure vanilla extract, 2 tbsp avocado oil, ½ cup cocoa powder
  • Add gluten-free rolled oats and stir to combine. Then add almond flour a little at a time and stir to combine. You're looking for a scoopable batter that's still moist. If too dry, thin with a bit of water or dairy-free milk. If too wet, add more almond flour a little at a time. Lastly, add chocolate chips and stir to combine.
    ¾ cup rolled oats, 1¼ cup almond flour, ¼ cup dark chocolate chips
  • Divide batter between muffin tins, filling almost all the way to the top (as recipe is written, about 11 muffins — adjust amounts as needed if adjusting serving size). Option to sprinkle on a few more chocolate chips before baking for more chocolate flavor.
    ¼ cup dark chocolate chips
  • Bake on the center rack for 25-30 minutes or until risen. When cooked, a toothpick inserted into the center will come out clean.
  • Let rest in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer muffins to a cooling rack to let cool completely. The wrappers come off more easily and the texture is best when completely cooled.
  • Store left overs covered at room temperature for up to 4-5 days, or in the freezer for up to 1 month.
