Ingredients
  

  • 2 large eggs whisked (substitute flax eggs instead for a vegan option. See notes below)
  • 2 ripe bananas mashed with a fork
  • 1/4 cup butter or coconut oil, melted
  • 1/3 cup + 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup milk of choice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 2 cups flour (spelt, all purpose or whole wheat)
  • 1 cup blueberries

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350F and add muffin liners to a 12 cup muffin tin.
  • Mix eggs, bananas, butter or coconut oil, honey or maple syrup, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, salt, baking soda and baking powder together in a large bowl.
  • Add flour and stir together until well incorporated.
  • Add blueberries and gently fold into the mixture.
  • Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling the muffin cups about 3/4 full. Bake for 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. Remove from oven and let cool in tin for 5 minutes. Gently remove muffins from tin and place them on a cooling rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • To make 2 flax eggs, mix 2 tablespoons ground flaxmeal with 5 tablespoons water. Stir and let sit for a few minutes to thicken.
