Yesterday we got an unexpected snow day so I got to do some baking during nap time. In this recipe, I wanted to incorporate bananas because I bought way too many after the power got restored and blueberries because they are a favorite of mine. I used garbanzo flour because I was running low in almond flour. I am very pleased with the results. Luckily I did not grab a batch of bland tasting blueberries!
I always make a mini muffin to taste and split it in half with my daughter. When she saw the blueberries inside I thought I was toast but she actually tasted the muffin and loved it. I really enjoy watching her try new things and finding new flavors she enjoys.
Here is the recipe I used for these muffins:
Ingredients
1/2 cup garbanzo flour
1/4 cup coconut sugar (can skip)
2 ripe bananas (mashed)
1/4 cup almond butter
2 eggs
1 tsp almond extract
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp vinegar
1 cup of blueberries
I prepared the mix (yields 6 large muffins) and folded in the blueberries last gently. I baked the muffins at 375F for 25 minutes. My kitchen smelled amazing in the process- even my seven year old daughter commented on it. Just saying...
I was surprised to see how flavorful these muffins actually are. They are not crumbly or too dry. They have a spongy texture complemented nicely by the tangy taste of the blueberries as you bite into them.
I know these muffins won't last in my house. I hope you enjoy them too!
Thank you for reading the post!
