Ingredients

  • 2 bananas
  • 200 grams plain Greek yogurt (I use full-fat)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 75 grams melted coconut oil
  • 145 grams dark brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons dark rum (optional but highly encouraged)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 142 grams gluten-free flour blend (I use Trader Joe's)
  • 48 grams almond meal
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 0.5 teaspoons nutmeg
  • 0.5 teaspoons ground allspice
  • 1 pinch cardamom
  • 70 grams chopped walnuts (optional)

Method

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees, and either line a standard muffin pan with baking cups or butter and flour the pan.
  • In a large bowl, use a sturdy whisk to blend together the melted (though slightly cooled) coconut oil with yogurt, then mash in bananas.
  • Beat in eggs, one at a time.
  • Add the brown sugar, rum, and vanilla to the bowl and whisk until well mixed.
  • In a separate bowl, use a fork or small whisk to blend all the dry ingredients: flours, baking soda, spices, and salt.
  • Slowly pour dry ingredients into wet ingredients and whisk until just combined.
  • If you're using walnuts, chop them gently fold them into the batter.
  • Pour batter into prepared muffin pan, and pop into the oven.
  • Bake for 20-25min., until muffins look springy and a tester comes out clean.
