Oatmeal Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins!
These Oatmeal Banana Muffins are soft and comforting. They’re hearty and filling, while tasty and perfectly sweet at the same time. They make a perfect snack, made filling with the addition of oats, coconut flour, coconut milk, and flax or regular eggs. These muffins are made with chocolate chips, but you could also try blueberries or chopped nuts as well!
These muffins are vegan friendly, gluten-free, and refined sugar-free. I used a combination of oat flour and coconut flour for the gluten-free base, and sweetened them with honey or maple syrup for a natural sweetener.
