Banana Bread Chocolate Muffins


INGREDIENTS:
1 1/2 cups whole wheat pastry flour
1/2 cup cacao powder
1/3 cup coconut sugar
3 ripe bananas, mashed
1/3 cup Greek yogurt
2 eggs
1/3 cup coconut oil, melted
2 tsp vanilla extract
2 tsp aluminum free baking soda .
Topping

1 cup dark chocolate chips
1 tbs coconut oil .

DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven to 350 F. Line a Jumbo muffin pan with muffin liners and set aside.

In a mixing bowl or a stand mixer add the bananas, vanilla, eggs, coconut oil and sugar. Combine until you obtain a homogenus mixture.

Add the flour, cacao powder and baking soda and combine with the wet ingredients.

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until a tester comes out clean. If you do regular size muffins the baking time would be less. Maybe about 20 minutes! Remove muffins from the baking pan and transfer them to a cooling rack. Cool completely.

On a save microwave bowl melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil. Dip each muffin in the melted chocolate mixture and top with nuts, shredded coconut, cacao nibs or whatever you like.

NOTE: You can use a regular muffin pan and obtain about 10-12 muffins instead.
