Bahan-bahan

12 porsi

1 tablespoon flaxseed meal (OR 1 large egg (if you do not need the muffins to be vegan))
3 large overripe bananas (about 11 ounces (1 1/2 cups mashed))
1/3 cup unsweetened applesauce
2 tablespoons canola oil (or melted cooled coconut oil*)
1/3 cup coconut sugar or light brown sugar
1/4 cup pure maple syrup
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/2 cups white whole wheat flour
1/2 cup dark chocolate chips (mini or regular (I used mini; dairy free if you'd like the muffins to be vegan))

Langkah-langkah

In a small bowl, stir the flaxseed meal together with 2 1/2 tablespoons water. Set aside for 5 minutes to thicken. (This creates a flax egg. If you are using a regular egg, you can skip this step and add the egg with the applesauce in Step 3.)
Place the rack in the center of your oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly coat a standard 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick spray.
Mash the bananas in the bottom of a large bowl until mostly smooth. Double-check to ensure you have the 1 1/2 cups called for in the recipe.
Whisk in the flax egg (or regular egg if not using flax), then the applesauce and oil. Whisk in the coconut sugar, maple syrup, and vanilla.
Sprinkle the baking soda, cinnamon, and salt over the top, then stir gently until combined. Gently stir in the flour until barely combined, then fold in the chocolate chips, reserving a few for sprinkling on top if desired.
Divide the mixture evenly among the muffin cups and sprinkle on any reserved chocolate chips.
Bake for 22 to 26 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean and the tops spring back lightly when touched.
Place the pan on a wire rack and let cool for 5 minutes. Gently remove the muffins from the pan and place them on a wire rack to finish cooling completely, or enjoy immediately.
