• Oh, together with I snuck around chocolate chunks inward at that topographic point because, well, why not

Let’s larn a niggling to a greater extent than most these beauties, shall we?

They’re easily made gluten-free past times using oat flour instead of regular flour! No worries – I’m non sending y'all out to honour around particular component that’s going to endure difficult to runway downwardly or that powerfulness sit down lonely inward the dorsum of your pantry for eternity later on using it ONE TIME.

Nope – we’re going to build our ain oat flour inward most two minutes using a nutrient processor or blender!

We’re using maple syrup hither inward house of refined sugar, because it’s practiced to give your trunk a intermission from refined saccharide every at 1 time together with then!

I’m absolutely non maxim y'all demand to halt eating refined saccharide forever – but I honour that my trunk feels happier together with healthier when I cutting dorsum on refined saccharide from fourth dimension to time. I intend Grant would begrudgingly concord amongst that statement 😉.

These may or may non technically endure refined saccharide costless because of the chocolate chunks – but y'all tin give notice either acquire out them out OR purchase chocolate chips that are made without refined sugar. (Stores similar Whole Foods are in all probability your best bet to honour something similar that!)

Or y'all tin give notice precisely telephone phone it remainder together with build these amongst regular chocolate chips – that’s what I did!

Let’s speak most bananas. I do NOT similar bananas.

But – I LOVE these muffins! Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 pile of rapidly-browning bananas sitting on our kitchen counter together with Grant’s honey of banana breadstuff are what prompted me to fifty-fifty build these inward the root place. I was skeptical that I would similar them but the banana gustation is non front-and-center inward these muffins. Plus, there’s a good for y'all dose of chocolate inward this recipe hence that in all probability helped!

Y’all – I could NEVER surrender chocolate. Like, never ever. Give upward refined-sugar from time-to-time together with bask treats similar these good for y'all banana chocolate oat muffins? I tin give notice do that. Absolutely, I tin give notice together with will.

*A banker's complaint most oats & gluten-free eating inward regards to this recipe –  Oats are technically a gluten-free nutrient BUT many brands of oats are processed inward facilities that also arrive at products containing gluten hence cross-contamination is a possibility. If y'all bring Celiac’s or absolutely can’t bring gluten for serious wellness problems build certain to purchase oats that are certified gluten-free! If y'all are precisely eating gluten-free because it’s your dietary preference, whatsoever oats should endure fine.
