Flourless Peanut Butter Banana Muffins by Detoxinista:

Ingredients:
1 cup natural organic peanut butter
2 very ripe bananas, mashed (about 1 cup mashed)
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 whole eggs
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 cup honey (or stevia, to taste)
1 teaspoon cinnamon

Optional add-ins: 1/2 cup chocolate chips, or 1 cup fresh raspberries, or 1/2 cup dried raisins or cherries, or 1 sliced banana or 1/2 cup blueberries

*I used 1/2 cup blueberries and 1/4 cup of mini chocolate chips

Directions:
Preheat your oven to 350F and prepare a muffin tin with baking spray. (I do not use muffin liners)

In a medium bowl, combine all of the ingredients mix until smooth. At this point, you can fold in one of the optional add-ins, if desired.

(Adding the fresh raspberries or dried fruit will make these taste like a ‘peanut butter and jelly’ muffin!)

Scoop the batter, using a 1/4 cup, into each muffin cup and then bake for 15 minutes. 

The resulting muffins should be firm, and lightly golden. Allow to cool for 15 minutes before removing from the pan.

Serve immediately, or store in a sealed container in the fridge for up to a week!
