When you fancy a muffin but really don’t want to eat refined sugar and over processed food, these are fab! Quick and easy to make and really chocolatey 🙂 AND cacao is a superfood so they’re actually good for you 🙂

I added cacao nibs to create chocolate chips and they worked a treat 🙂

Ingredients – for 4-6 large muffins

• Ripe or overripe bananas x 2
• Egg yolks x 2
• Coconut oil – 1/4 cup
• Baking soda – 1 tsp.
• Salt – 1/2 tsp.
• Honey – 4 tbsp.
• Maple syrup – 2 tbsp.
• Almond milk – 1/4 cup
• Sugar free caramel syrup (optional) – 2 tbsp.
• Wholemeal self-raising flour – 1.5-2 cups depending on consistency
• Cacao powder – 4 tbsp.
• Cacao nibs – 2 tbsp.

Directions

1. Pre-heat oven to gas mark 5 / 190
2. Mash bananas in a mixing bowl
3. Add melted coconut oil, egg yolks, baking soda, salt, honey, maple syrup, caramel syrup and almond milk and whisk gently for a smooth batter
4. Fold in flour and cacao powder
5. Add cacao nibs
6. Stir thoroughly mixing everything together
7. Pour the mixture into large muffin cases and place into a muffin tray
8. Bake for 30-45 mins (or until a knife comes out clean when poked in the middle of one)

Easy peasy 🙂

Enjoy!
