These muffins are loaded with flavours: banana, maple, vanilla, and, of course, chocolate! They have a nice, hearty texture thanks to the rolled oats. Perfect for a quick breakfast or to accompany a cup of tea in the afternoon. Enjoy!

Servings: 8 large muffins
Ingredients
  • 1/3 cup aquafaba (chickpea liquid)
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/3 cup almond milk
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup gluten free rolled oats
  • 1 1/2 cups Bob's Red Mill All Purpose Gluten Free Flour
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp xanthan gum
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2/3 cup mashed bananas (about 2 bananas)
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips (or sub walnuts)
  • oats and granulated sugar for topping (optional)
Instructions
  1. In a medium sized bowl, mix together the aquafaba, oil, milk, maple syrup, sugar, and vanilla extract and set aside.

  2. In a large bowl, mix together the oats, flour, baking powder, xanthan gum, and salt. 

  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.

  4. Fold in mashed bananas and chocolate chips.

  5. Let the batter sit while you preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a muffin tin with muffin liners - I love the parchment ones, they work great.

  6. When the oven is preheated, divide the batter into the muffin liners. Sprinkle with sugar and oats.

  7. Bake for 27 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
