Ingredients

  • 2 medium bananas mashed (about ⅔ cup)
  • ½ cup plain Greek yogurt I like Faje
  • 1 large egg
  • ½ Tablespoon vanilla
  • ½ cup coconut sugar
  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1 cup gluten free flour I have used my recipe, Thrive, Grandpa's Kitchen, and Bob's Red Mill 1:1
  • 2 teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Whisk together mashed bananas, Greek yogurt, egg, vanilla, and sugar.
  • Add remaining ingredients and whisk just until combined, or stir with a spoon.
  • Prepare a muffin tin by lining with paper liners (these are my favorite, they never stick)
  • Divide batter evenly between 12 muffin cups and bake for 13-15 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. 
  • Remove to a cooling rack.
  • Once completely cooled, these muffins can be frozen. To thaw, simply remove from the freezer, or warm in the microwave for about 30 seconds each.

Notes

  • Coconut sugar is used as a sweetener in this recipe because it is a natural sweetener that is lower glycemic. This means it does not cause your blood sugar to rise as quickly as regular sugar.
