Ingredients

Wet Ingredients

3 banana
1 cup non-dairy milk
2 Tbsp nut/seed butter
1 Tbsp molasses
1 tsp apple cider vinegar
1 tsp vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients

1 1/2 cup whole grain flour
1/4-1/2 cup unrefined sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 cup cocoa powder
pinch sea salt

Mix In Ingredients

1/4 cup non-dairy chocolate chips, or dried cranberries or walnuts (optional)

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 F.
Put the bananas and all the wet ingredients in a blender and puree until smooth.
Put the flour and dry ingredients in a bowl and stir to combine.
Mix together the wet and dry, stirring as little as possible, and fold in the chocolate chips or other mix ins.
Spoon into muffin cups or greased muffin tins, and bake at 350F for 20-30 minutes.
Take them out of the oven and let them cool fully before taking out of the trays, since they’ll be very moist.
Keep them refrigerated.

Notes

To make icing, mix together until smooth: 1/4 cup almond butter 1/4 cup maple syrup 1/4 cup cocoa powder
