I’ve been trying to do more meal prepping lately.

Mainly because life is just so busy that sometimes I don’t have time to sit down and eat. Especially in the morning when I’m trying to prepare my workload for the day and getting Gavin off to school.

So on Sundays I spend a little extra time cooking and baking quick meals that I can refrigerate. Then I can just grab and go when I’m hungry.

Most of the time I meal prep smoothies for breakfast, but I had a bunch of bananas that were getting really ripe so I thought – Hey why not make some banana muffins!

In a large bowl I added Bananas, Coconut Oil, Yogurt, Sugar, Eggs, and Vanilla Extract. Using a hand mixer I mixed it until the batter was smooth. I find using a hand mixer is so much easier and it gets a much better consistency.

Then I mixed in Flour, Baking Soda, Salt, Cacao Nibs.

Note: I used King Arthur Paleo Baking Flour (affiliate) but you can use your favorite 1-to-1 gluten free flour blend.

I sprayed the inside of the muffin tin with Coconut Oil because I think it adds a better flavor than any other cooking spray.

Then scooped the batter into each muffin cup and filled it 3/4 of the way full.

Baked it at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes, and Boom! Now we have breakfast made for a few days!

My son was raving about these Banana Muffins, and let me tell ya, these days it’s hard to get any kind of feedback from my busy teenager. 🙂

Notes

  1. If using regular sugar convert to 3/4 cup.
  2. Note: These are not super sweet muffins, they have more of a naturally light sweet taste which I find perfect for breakfast.
  3. Cacao Nibs are not sweet but have more of a dark chocolate bitter flavor, you can substitute with regular chocolate chips if you want more sweetness.
