Despite being naturally sweetened (with bananas!) and swirled with tahini, the main flavor is clear: CHOCOLATE. They’re refined flour-free, gluten-free, plant-based, refined sugar-free, (oil-free optional), and made in 1 bowl! These muffins start with making a flax egg, followed by adding bananas (spotty ones are best) to the mixing bowl and mashing with a fork. Baking soda helps the muffins rise and a combination of coconut sugar and maple syrup gives balanced sweetness and texture while keeping them refined sugar-free. Then we add tahini for moisture, which also means there’s no need to add much oil. Sea salt and vanilla enhance the flavors, and cocoa powder gives these muffins a rich, chocolaty flavor. The final dry ingredients are almond flour and rolled oats, which keep these muffins wholesome, whole grain, and free from refined flours! The result is fluffy yet fudgy muffins flecked with whole oats. SWOON! And we saved the best for last: a sprinkle of chocolate chips for the perfect amount of melty chocolate in each bite! We hope you LOVE these muffins! They’re:FudgyChocolatyPerfectly sweetTenderEasy to makeSurprisingly wholesome& SO delicious!
