Vegan Double Chocolate Banana Muffins



So last night I noticed we had a lot of ripe bananas and I wanted to use up some of our bananas by making muffins. I also was having a sweet tooth moment which is not uncommon. Basically what happened was this recipe. I hope you give it a try! 

3 Ripened organic bananas 
1/2 cup organic pure cane sugar
1 tsp pure vanilla extract 
2 flax eggs (2 tbs ground flax meal mixed with 6 tbs water)
1/3 cup melted non dairy butter (I used earth balance)
1/2 cup cocoa or cacao powder 
1 1/2 unbleached all purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder 
1 tsp baking soda 
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1 cup dairy free chocolate chips

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease or line a muffin pan. (This recipe makes 12 muffins) make your flax eggs by mixing in a small bowl two tablespoons ground flax meal with six tablespoons water.. Allow mixture to sit for at least 5 minutes. 

In a medium bowl combine the cocoa powder, flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt and chocolate chips. Set aside. 

In a large bowl mash the bananas. Mix in the sugar, melted butter, vanilla and your flax eggs. Once well combined stir in the flour mixture. Mix until all the dry ingredients are wet, careful not to over mix. 




Next fill up your muffin tin. I like to use an ice cream scoop so they come out the same size. 

Bake for 18-20 minutes. Allow to cool before removing from the pan. 

I hope you enjoy!!
