Healthy Banana chocolate chip and Almond Butter Chocolate  Muffins

WHAT

½ cup oat flour (or regular oats if using a high speed blender)

½ cup almond meal/flour

¼ cup ground flax seed 

½ teaspoon baking soda

½ teaspoon baking powder

½ teaspoon salt

2 large super ripe bananas, mashed 

¼ cup greek yogurt 

¼ cup unsweetened applesauce

2 heaping tbsp almond butter (May sub peanut butter if you wish)

1 tablespoons macadamia oil, or other 

¼ cup honey or agave nectar 

1 egg white

1 teaspoon vanilla

¼ cup mini dark chocolate chips (and more to sprinkle on top

Optional: ¼ cup chopped almonds or pecans (for the crunch!) 

HOW
Preheat oven to 350 and grease muffin pan. I used coconut oil spray.
Combine all dry ingredients in a large bowl. In a smaller bowl or high speed blender, add/mash the bananas. Add the yogurt, almond  butter, oil, unsweetened applesauce, honey, egg white and vanilla; whisk to combine. 
Gently stir the wet ingredients into the dry until just combined, scraping the sides. Fold in the chocolate chips and chopped nuts. Pour batter into prepared muffin pan, adding a chocolate sprinkle over the top – bake for 20-25 minutes but keep a close watch on them!They bake quickly. Done when golden brown. Go super well with coffee baileys! Just sayin…. ?!
ENJOY
