These banana bread muffins are a great lunch box addition or something to whip up when your friends are coming around for afternoon tea. They’re gluten free, sugar free and high in protein. Thankfully, this doesn’t equate to a lack of flavour or weird textures. They passed Reis’ taste test and even made it to the ‘make it again list’. Finn was impressed too, so they’re kid friendly! I love making these as a nourishing snack for the family that sneaks in lots of fibre! Give them a try, the recipe is below.
Banana Bread Muffins {high protein, sugar free, gluten free}
- ½ cup coconut flour
- ¼ cup vanilla whey protein powder
- ¼ cup almond meal
- ¼ cup Stevia (or Natvia)
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- ¼ tsp nutmeg
- ¼ tsp ground ginger
- 1 tsp psyllium husk
- 3 medium bananas
- 3 eggs
- ⅓ cup greek yogurt
- 1 tsp vanilla paste
- 2 tbsp unsweetened almond milk
- Preheat oven to 180 °C. Place paper cups in muffin tray and set aside.
- In a large bowl sift the dry ingredients and mix together. In a medium bowl, mash bananas and vigorously whisk in remaining wet ingredients.
- Pour wet ingredients into the dry and mix until well-combined. Distribute evenly into paper cups and garnish with flaked almonds.
- Bake for 13-15 minutes, or until a skewer inserted comes out clean.
