Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin with butter. (5 minutes)

02

Step
3 mins

In a large bowl, combine the flaxseed meal, sugar, chia seeds, baking powder, and cinnamon. (3 minutes)

03

Step
5 mins

Add the mashed bananas, beaten eggs, and chopped apple to the dry ingredients. Mix until the batter is thoroughly combined. (5 minutes)

04

Step
2 mins

Stir in 6 tablespoons of coconut flakes. (2 minutes)

05

Step
5 mins

Fill each muffin cup approximately 3/4 full with batter. (5 minutes)

06

Step
2 mins

Sprinkle the remaining 2 tablespoons of coconut flakes evenly over the tops of the muffins. (2 minutes)

07

Step
30 mins

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the tops spring back when lightly pressed, about 30 minutes. (30 minutes)

08

Step
10 mins

Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. (10 minutes)

For best results, use very ripe bananas for maximum sweetness and moisture.
Feel free to substitute brown sugar or coconut sugar for granulated sugar.
Add 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts or pecans for added texture and flavor.
Store leftover muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
These muffins freeze well. Wrap individually and store in a freezer bag for up to 2 months. Thaw at room temperature before serving.
