Categories     Baked goods

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 12

3/4 cup whole wheat pastry flour or white/regular whole wheat flour
1/2 cup white whole wheat flour or regular whole wheat flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest (the zest from about about 1/2 medium lemon)
1 cup mashed ripe banana (from about 3 bananas)
1/2 cup virgin coconut oil, melted
1/4 cup honey
1 large egg, preferably at room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut, divided
1 tablespoon turbinado (raw) sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. If necessary, grease all 12 cups of your muffin tin with butter or muffin liners (my pan is non-stick and didn't require any grease).
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flours, baking powder, salt and lemon zest. Stir in 1/2 cup of the shredded coconut.
  • In a separate, medium bowl, whisk together the mashed banana, coconut oil, honey, egg and vanilla.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Divide the batter evenly between the muffin cups (a scant 1/4 cup batter each), then sprinkle the muffin tops with the remaining 1/4 cup shredded coconut. Sprinkle the tops with the raw sugar.
  • Bake for about 17 to 20 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Transfer muffins to a cooling rack and let them cool.

CHOCOLATE BANANA MUFFINS



Chocolate Banana Muffins image

These muffins are so moist and full of flavor! I have looked at dozens of recipes and most had too much sugar for my liking. There is absolutely no need for a lot of sugar to make these muffins delicious. Because they have bananas and chocolate chips, I just added 1/2 cup of sugar, which turned out perfect!

Categories     Bread     Quick Bread Recipes     Muffin Recipes     Chocolate Muffin Recipes

Time 40m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 ripe bananas, mashed
3 large eggs
¼ cup coconut flour
2 tablespoons coconut flour
1 tablespoon stevia powder
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
⅓ cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 10 muffin cups with paper liners.
  • Blend bananas, eggs, coconut flour, stevia, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl with a whisk or a fork. Stir in chocolate chips.
  • Pour mixture evenly between the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 1/2 inch from the top as these muffins won't rise as much as others.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes and transfer to a paper towel-lined plate; the moisture from the bananas will leak through the liners a little and this is normal.

Time 35m

Yield 8 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 very ripe bananas, mashed
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
2/3 cup sugar
1 large egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
3/4 cup sweetened flaked coconut

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°. Line muffin cups with paper muffin liners.
  • Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Whisk together bananas, butter, sugar, egg, vanilla, and 1/2 cup coconut in a large bowl until combined well, then fold in flour mixture until flour is just moistened.
  • Divide batter among lined muffin cups and sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup coconut.
  • Bake until muffins are puffed and golden, about 25 minutes.
  • Transfer muffins to a rack and cool slightly.

Tips:

  • Prep Work: Before you start baking, ensure all your ingredients are at room temperature. This allows them to mix together more easily and evenly, resulting in a better batter.
  • Ripe Bananas: Use very ripe bananas, as they add sweetness and moisture to the muffins. If your bananas are not ripe enough, microwave them for a few seconds to soften them.
  • Measuring Flour: To ensure accurate measurements, use a kitchen scale to measure your flour. Alternatively, spoon the flour into a measuring cup and level it off with a knife.
  • Mixing the Batter: Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in tough muffins. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Muffin Liners: Use muffin liners to prevent the muffins from sticking to the muffin pan. You can also grease the muffin pan with butter or cooking spray.
  • Baking Time: Keep an eye on the muffins while they are baking. The baking time can vary depending on the oven. Insert a toothpick into the center of a muffin; if it comes out clean, the muffins are done.

Conclusion:

Indulge in the delightful flavors of coconut, chocolate, and banana with these irresistibly moist and fluffy muffins. Perfect for breakfast, snacks, or dessert, these muffins are easy to make and loved by all. Remember to use ripe bananas for optimal sweetness and moisture, and avoid overmixing the batter to prevent tough muffins. Experiment with different chocolate chips, nuts, or dried fruits to create your own unique variations. Enjoy the irresistible aroma and taste of these coconut chocolate banana muffins, a true delight for your taste buds!
