Banana Bread Muffins

I have to admit, I love all things banana - packed with potassium (instant mood booster), B Vitamins, vitamin C, fibre & minerals, they do wonders for the body and mind! I wanted something quick to whip up for a snack to take to work. So here you have it - banana bread muffins, flour and sugar free, of course! 



Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups Almond Meal
1 tablespoons Flaxseed Oil
1 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoons nutmeg or mixed spice
2 Bananas
2 Eggs
1/2 teaspoons raw vanilla extract
2 tablespoons honey
1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 tablespoons olive or coconut oil
Sprinkle of chopped walnuts


Method: 
Preheat oven to 190 degrees

Mix almond meal, flaxseed, cinnamon, baking soda & powder, nutmeg or mixed spice, & pinch of salt in bowl.

In another bowl, mash banana, add eggs, vanilla, honey & olive oil. Mix well

Make a well in the middle of the dry ingredients, pour in wet ingredients mixture. Add in chopped walnuts. Combine well.

Fill muffin pan cups 3/4 full. Sprinkle walnuts on top. Bake muffins for 20mins, or poke skewer in centre of muffins and if it comes out clean, it's time to remove.


Leave to cool for 5 minutes.  
Best served with honey & coconut oil/butter :)
