Low Carb Peanut Butter Banana Flour Muffins
Green banana flour is high in essential minerals and vitamins, including vitamin E, magnesium, and high potassium. The flour is made from starchy unripe bananas, which are low in sugar and high in resistant starch, which helps control blood glucose and has a wide range of digestive benefits. Banana flour has prebiotic effects that help promote the growth of beneficial bacteria in the gut as well. These delicious gluten-free muffins are made with banana flour, peanut butter, vanilla, eggs, plenty of cinnamon, and a touch of lemon juice. These would be great smothered with additional nut butter or salted soften salted butter for breakfast or snack.
What can I use if I'm avoiding peanuts?
If you're avoiding peanuts, you can use almond butter or cashew butter as long as it's unsweetened.
What other kinds of spices can I add?
Feel free to add spices like clove, nutmeg, allspice, and cardamom. Banana extract or almond extract would be delicious as well. Other add-ins can include additional nuts like pumpkins seeds, walnuts, pecans etc.
How do I store finished muffins?
Store the muffins in an airtight container once completely cooled. Gluten-free and low-carb goods tend to mold quickly, so if you're not going to eat them in a couple of days, keep them in the refrigerator or freeze them for up to a month.
