Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 35 minutes
Servings 12

Ingredients

**Dry Ingredients:**

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup vanilla protein powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ cup chocolate chunks

**Wet Ingredients:**

  • ½ cup packed light brown sugar
  • ¼ cup maple syrup
  • 1 cup mashed banana about 2 medium ripe bananas
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup unsweetened plain almond milk
  • 2 tablespoons melted coconut oil

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350ºF and line a muffin pan with liners, spraying them with cooking spray.
  • In a medium bowl, combine all the dry ingredients. In a separate large bowl, whisk together the brown sugar and maple syrup, then add the mashed banana, eggs, and almond milk, mixing until well combined.
  • Transfer the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and stir until fully combined. Add melted coconut oil and mix again.
  • Fill each muffin well generously. We recommend filling them between 3/4 full and all the way to the top.
  • Bake at 350ºF for 18-22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Mash the banana on a plate with a fork before measuring it.
  • Chocolate chips can be substituted for chocolate chunks.
  • If the batter feels too thick, add a few more tablespoons of almond milk.
  • Avoid letting the batter sit too long after mixing the wet and dry ingredients to ensure the muffins rise properly.
