Blueberry & Banana Muffins! [Recipe]

I love all baked banana goods! Banana loaf cake, banana muffins, banana bread... You get the jist :P 

And today I will share a Blueberry and Banana muffin recipe with you!

These muffins are really soft and moist and just perfect for those sweet cravings! I tried to make this recipe as healthy as I could without it being a complete fail haha! Hope you enjoy it!

Ingredients:

3 ripe med-large bananas (the more dots the better!)
3 tbsp honey (I used Manuka Honey)
1 tbsp chia seeds mixed with 3 tbsp water (this is a substitute for 1 egg)
1/3 cup melted coconut oil
1 cup blueberries
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup plain flour
1/2 cup wholemeal wheat flour

Method:

The chia seed paste

1. Preheat your oven to 190°C.
2. Grind your chia seeds in a food processor or spice grinder, mix with 3 tbsp of water until it becomes a gooey paste. Leave it aside for 5 minutes.
3. Mash your bananas, set aside.
4. Mix the honey and chia seed paste together.
5. Add in your blueberries and coconut oil.
6. Mix in all the dry ingredients and then the mashed bananas bit by bit until well combined.
7. Grease your muffin tray with oil or non stick cooking spray.
8. Evenly divide the batter into your muffin tray, this is enough for a tray of 12.
9. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until they have browned and toothpick comes out clean!
10. Let it cool on a cooling rack for a few minutes before serving, enjoy!

Notes:

• The more ripe your bananas the less honey you will need as the bananas will add to the sweetness!
• You can use an egg if you don't want to use the chia seeds sub!
