Prep Time: 15 mins
Cook Time: 20 mins
Total Time: 35 mins
Cuisine: Paleo
Serves: 12 muffins
Ingredients
- 2 ripe bananas
- 1 cup peach puree
- 1 cup almond flour
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly with coconut oil to prevent sticking.
- In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork until smooth. Ensure there are no large lumps for an even texture in your muffins.
- Add the peach puree to the mashed bananas and mix well until fully combined. This will add moisture and natural sweetness to the muffins.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking soda, and cinnamon. This will help ensure that the baking soda is evenly distributed throughout the flour.
- In another bowl, beat the eggs and honey together until well combined. The honey will add sweetness and moisture, while the eggs will help bind the ingredients.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can lead to dense muffins.
- Using a spoon or an ice cream scoop, divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full to allow for rising during baking.
- Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
- Once baked, remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Enjoy your Paleo Banana Peach Muffins as a delicious and healthy snack or breakfast option!
Tips
- Choose overripe bananas for maximum natural sweetness and easier mashing.
- Use fresh, high-quality almond flour for the best texture and flavor.
- Don't overmix the batter - this can lead to tough, dense muffins. Mix just until ingredients are combined.
- For extra moisture, ensure your peach puree is smooth and well-incorporated.
- Use a light hand when filling muffin cups to prevent overflow and ensure even baking.
- Let muffins cool completely before storing to maintain their perfect texture.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer preservation.
- For added nutrition, consider sprinkling some chopped nuts on top before baking.
