Paleo Banana Muffins

Everyone's heard about the Paleo diet, but I only recently looked into it. It's fantastic! And pretty close to how we eat already. Except the grains. And the minimal amount of dairy we eat. (CHEESE. I LOVE CHEESE.) It's basically meat, veggies, fruit and nuts. No sugar. No processed crap "food". It is fantastically healthy. I encourage you all to click the link and look at the graphic. It has really great information that could help you in huge ways! 

Anyway. Back to the muffins. They are delicious. Really banana-y with a hint of coconut. So yummy. Super healthy- eat as many as you want, without any guilt. Isn't that the best type of food?


Recipe slightly adapted from here.


2 really ripe bananas, mashed 
1/3 coconut oil
3 eggs
2-4 tablespoons agave nectar, honey or maple syrup (use less sweetener the more ripe your bananas are)
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 cup coconut flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt


Preheat oven to 350.

Combine the first 5 ingredients until well blended. Add the last 4 ingredients, stirring until smooth. Place paper liners in muffin tin or grease generously. Spoon batter into muffin tin, filling each 1/2 full. (Batter will be enough for 10-12 muffins, depending on the size of your bananas.)

Bake for 23-25 minutes.
