🍲 Ingredients
Bananas: The best bananas for baking are super ripe ones, like the more brown spots the better. You can also use ones that have gone brown that you’ve frozen, just thaw them out and mash them up. They’ll look bad, but they aren’t! I made this banana muffin recipe with my friends at Chiquita because I love their bananas, and I don’t just love them, they’re the world’s most loved. For more than 100 years they’ve been producing the best bananas and delivering them around the world. You’re lying if you don’t remember growing up with Miss Chiquita in your home. Bananas themselves also have so many health benefits, and they’re a fruit that you can always, without a doubt find in your grocery store (which hey, that can be hard in Canada during the winter months). Some of those benefits are:
One of the best fruit sources for vitamin B6 One medium banana will provide you with 10% of your daily vitamin C needs They are loaded with potassium Can help aid digestion They give you energy
Flours: I use both all-purpose flour and almond flour. They both bring different textures to this recipe, and the almond flour brings great health benefits like monounsaturated fat, which can help keep cholesterol under control. Eggs: Egg replacement is my go-to for baking as a vegan. However, you can also make a flax egg or if you aren’t vegan, you can use a regular egg.

Can I swap out coconut oil? Yes, you can use vegan or regular butter instead of coconut oil Bananas: I’ve said it once, and I’ll say it again, use super ripe bananas. They will look like they’ve gone bad but this is the perfect way to use them up versus throwing them out Egg replacement: If you aren’t vegan, you can use egg. If you are, you can make a flax egg, or 1/4 cup apple sauce (per egg)
