Banana Tahini Chocolate Chip Muffins
These banana tahini chocolate chip muffins are the perfect healthy treat that you need in your life! Made with oat flour and chickpea flour, and sweetened just with honey, these muffins are gluten free and refined sugar free.
Ingredients
- 70 g (¾ cup) oat flour
- 64 g (¾ cup) chickpea flour
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 415 g very ripe medium bananas, 3 bananas
- 64 g (¼ cup) tahini
- 84 g (¼ cup) honey
- 2 eggs, room temp
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 127 g (¾ cup) mini semisweet chocolate chips, + more for topping
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a muffin pan with parchment baking cups.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the oat flour, chickpea flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, mash up the bananas with a fork. Then, add the tahini, honey, eggs, and vanilla. Whisk the mixture until fully combined.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, and wisk until fully combined.
- Next, fold in the mini chocolate chips.
- Pour the batter into the muffin pan, filling each cup to about ¾ full. Top each of the muffins with extra mini chocolate chips, if desired.
- Bake the muffins for about 14-16 minutes, or until the tops spring back when you gently press them with a finger.
Notes
- If tahini isn't your thing, you can swap it out for a drippy, creamy nut butter. I'm sure these would be amazing with peanut butter!
- These muffins can be stored in an airtight container for a couple days, but I prefer to freeze them so they will last longer. They are my absolute favorite freezer stash!
- If you never seem to have ripe bananas laying around your kitchen, like me, you can ripen a few in the oven. Just bake the unpeeled bananas on a baking sheet at 300 degrees F for about 15-20 minutes, turning them over half way through, until they are evenly black. Wait for them to cool before peeling and mashing up.
