Paleo Banana Muffins (Gluten Free/ Grain Free/ Vegan/ Dairy Free/ Refined Sugar Free/ Nut Free)

Even though it is January, I am still having treats! Yes I still have cookies and muffins! Yes I have cut back from the holidays, but do you remember when I talked about doing resolutions in moderation?  So yes I’m eating them!! In moderation….

Paleo Banana Muffins

Back to my banana muffins… Quite a bit of paleo baking is either full of eggs which my body is just not happy with these days or made with ground nuts which many other people can’t have.  I have really tried to make my more recent paleo baking both egg and nut free. I am so happy with all of the results that I have created! I hope that you enjoy them as much as I do!!

  1. I love that these are egg free and nut free! I can’t do bananas so do you think pumpkin or applesauce would work?

    Sorry to ask a substitution question after you worked so hard on this beautiful recipe! Thank you.

    1. They might but I haven’t tried. You might also want to look at my chocolate beet cake.

  2. These sound good! I haven’t really tried out coconut flour yet, so this will be the recipe to give it a go! Chocolate chips make everything better haha ;p

  3. These sound delicious! I’m always in the mood for a banana muffin – and I love that these are grain-free, too. 🙂 Thanks so much for sharing them with us at Savoring Saturdays, I’m going to feature them at this weekend’s party. 🙂

  4. Just made and tried these. Easy recipe. I liked it that the ingrents are ones that you might have on hand if you bake on a regular. Tasty! Could use less sugar for those sensitive to sweets. Not sure how the texture would come out though. The texture just as is… gooey. Would go amazing with some coconut milk ice cream. A winner at my house!
