Yes, I said Banana Blueberry Muffins. A couple weeks ago I decided to experiment because I could never get MDA's banana fritter to "flip". I know I am a prefectionist. So in a fit of genius, I decided to put the batter in muffin tins and have been evolving from there.
You can expand / contract your recipe using a 1-1-1 ratio
1 banana to 1/3 cup almond meal /to 1 egg
Into your mixer or food processor
3 eggs
3 ripe bananas
1 cup amond meal
1 tbsp cinnamon
1 tbsp coconut flour
1 tsp arrow root or baking soda (yeah I know)
1 cup of dried blueberries (they get really juicy when cooked so try it)
Grease muffin tin with butter. Get it really good and in all the cracks
pre-heat the oven to 375 deg
Distribute batter evenly over the muffin tins. Cook 25-30 minutes
use a toothpick to check that they are solid & cooked and can come out.
Voila!!! Enjoy with coffee and some yogurt.
I finally broke down and bought a food saver vaccumn sealer. I package mine up in units of 2-3. perfect for on the go.
Even my husband loves it!!!

Hi Julia,
Thanks for sharing banana blueberry muffins recipe. As these both are my favorite fruits so I will definitely try this.
I have checked and founs all the ingredients in stock so I will try muffins on this weekend and will share my reviews later.
Well, I didn't get my almond flour today, so I went and bought an expensive 1 lb. bag at the health food store, lol Anyway, I can tell these muffins are amazing, but I think I'm gonna make them a bread next time...the texture just didn't work out for me. I did the 2 ratio, with the coconut flour & arrowroot being a little off bc I didn't have a 1/3 Tbsp. I don't think it made that much of a difference, though.
First I checked them and they weren't done all the way. Then I burned them, lol BUT I pulled off the top and bottom (lol) and scooped out the middle part that was perfect and put it in a little container in the fridge...it was about one muffin's worth. LOL
I ate it cold this morning and it was DELICIOUSSS! I really wish I hadn't messed them up. Especially since I used my expensive dried blueberries. :/
Do you think this is better as a bread or should I try it as muffins again? I think next time I'll fold in the blueberries to keep the muffin a more normal color, haha
Btw, this was the first time I've ever not gone EXACTLY by the recipe, so next time I'll stick with the original amounts.![]()

Yeah !!! Cook Success. In my book anything that you can still eat is success. You just have to monkey with your cook times/ove times to make it work for you.
I am going to try bread next time. I try to grease the pan really well, but I still get some left in the bottom. pain to clean the muffin tin.
Hubby went shopping today, so tonight is cook night.
