Tips:
- Use ripe bananas: This will give your muffins a sweeter flavor and a more moist texture.
- Flax eggs: To make flax eggs, simply combine 1 tablespoon of ground flaxseed with 3 tablespoons of water and let it sit for 5 minutes. This will create a gel-like consistency that can be used as a substitute for eggs in many recipes.
- Mix wet and dry ingredients separately: This will help to ensure that your muffins are evenly mixed and have a light and fluffy texture.
- Do not overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in tough muffins.
- Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that your muffins are cooked through.
- Let the muffins cool completely before frosting or serving: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting and the muffins from falling apart.

These vegan banana flaxseed muffins are a delicious and healthy way to start your day. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking.
