    TIPS TO MAKE THE BEST LOW CARB CHOCOLATE BANANA MUFFINS

    Squeeze the water out of the grated zucchini, this will ensure you get the best consistency and the muffins don't end up too wet.

    Don't tightly pack the coconut flour, the measure in the recipe is with fluffed flour.

    Use ripe bananas, they're naturally sweeter!

    Use organic eggs, they're the main source of protein of these muffins so it's super important to buy good quality ones!

    Let the muffins cool down before you eat them, I know this can be SO HARD! But really the consistency is much better!

    Store in the fridge for up to 5 days in an airtight container.

    Description

    These super easy to make low carb chocolate banana muffins are deliciously moist, fluffy and sweet. They only take 10 minutes to prepare and they make the perfect grab-me healthy breakfast or snack. Gluten-free, dairy-free and refined sugar-free! 


    Ingredients

    Scale

    WET INGREDIENTS

    2 ripe bananas

    3 organic eggs

    2 tablespoons of coconut oil melted

    ¼ cup of plant milk (I use almond or coconut)

    1 teaspoon of vanilla essence

    DRY INGREDIENTS

    ½ cup of coconut flour

    1 tablespoon of baking powder

    1 tablespoon of coconut sugar

    ⅓ cup of raw cacao (fair trade)

    1 cup packed of grated zucchini - see notes

    Pepitas to decorate


    Instructions

    Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius in baking mode

    In a large mixing bowl mash the bananas and add the rest of wet ingredients

    In a small bowl combine all the dry ingredients except the zucchini

    Add the dry ingredients to the wet mix and combine well. Add the zucchini and combine

    Line a muffin tray with compostable cups (7-8 large ) and add batter to each cup. Fill up each muffin cup to the top. Add a few pepitas at the very top of each muffin to decorate

    Bake for 30-35 minutes until the batter is cooked

    Let them cool before eating

    Notes

    • Squeeze out the water of the grated zucchini using a milk bag
    • I really recommend letting the muffins cool down before eating as the consistency is better.
    • Store in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
