Recipe: Callie's Paleo Chocolate Banana Muffins!

This post was originally posted back on October 22, 2014. That seems like ages ago. We were still living in our tiny little townhouse, we had just started eating paleo and we weren't even married yet.

We were just little babes trying to figure out how to be adults in a brand new state. It's crazy to me to look back on old posts and see how much has changed.

One thing that hasn't changed is our love for these muffins. They are super easy to make and legit taste like dessert. I found that eating paleo and cooking for Adam is way easier when I plan ahead. It usually keeps us on a better meal plan and not so many snacks if we do this.

Adam and I are always looking for new breakfast options, so when Callie told me about these, we knew we had to try them! They're super easy to make and oh. my. gosh. they are so delicious. I hope you all enjoy!

Ingredients:

• 3 ripe bananas
• 2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted
• 1/3 cup maple syrup
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 1 egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 cup almond meal
• 1/4 cup coconut flour
• 1/3 cup cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips (for paleo, make sure they have no added sugar or milk!) 

How to Make: 

1. Heat oven to 350 degrees. 
2. Line a muffin tin with papers. 
3. Beat the 3 ripe bananas with a mixer until well blended and no chunks. 
4. Add the coconut oil, maple syrup, honey, egg and vanilla, mix on medium. 
5. Add the almond meal, coconut flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder and mix on low. 
6. Stir in the chocolate chips. 
7. Spoon the batter into the muffin tins. 
8. For extra, sprinkle chocolate chips on top! 
9. Bake for 18 minutes (or high-altitude baking for 23 minutes!) 
10. Enjoy! 

 The batter, try not to eat it all before you bake it :) 

Thank goodness we got married and got new pans! 

 All ready to go in! I forgot the papers, but I sprayed it. 

Thanks for the recipe Callie! 

Happy Tuesday!
