gluten free vegan peanut butter banana muffins

May 21, 2015 by Sarah 8 Comments

Gluten Free Peanut Butter Banana Muffins. A little protein, a whole lot of deliciousness!

Peanut butter and bananas. Yummy, yummy! One of my favorite after school snacks as a kid was a piece of bread with peanut butter and banana slices on top. My mom would usually do a little drizzle of honey on there too. She was always (and still is) good at making the perfect, filled-with-love snacks for her kids.

I’ve taken the flavors from my childhood favorite and combined them in a breakfast treat! These muffins are filled with protein from the peanut butter, healthy fats from the coconut oil and sweetness from those ripe bananas. They bake up in no time and you’ve got muffins for the week. Nothing better than a homemade snack to take with you on the go. They freeze great too!

    I love baking gluten-free – however my goodies never come out the same each time. Most often my muffins come out with hard tops – which is not appetizing, even though they still taste good. Do you know what I'm doing wrong? It is really random, because sometimes they are totally perfect then other times not.

    You're mum sound amazing and the recipe does too. I only recently got into peanut butter and despite loving bananas when I was a kid I developed a massive aversion to them that I only got over a month or so ago. With these two flavours together I can't wait to try them.

    These muffins are delicious! However, after a couple times making these, I discovered how to make them even better….with chocolate chips, of course. 🙂 This may take away from the “healthiness” of these muffins a bit (or make them a non-breakfast muffin), but boy does it take them to a whole new level! Thanks again for yet another delicious DF, GF, vegan recipe!
