Ingredients
- 3 cups ground almonds
- 2 t baking soda
- 1/2 t sea salt
- 4 T coconut oil
- 2 T chia seeds or flaxseeds, plus 6 T water
- 2 ripe bananas, mashed
- 1 T vanilla extract

How to Make It
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
2. Add 10 to 12 paper muffin cups to a muffin baking tray.
3. Mix 2 T of chia seeds, or ground flaxseeds, with 6 T water and place in the fridge for 15 minutes.
4. Combine all of the ingredients in a large bowl and mix together. Add the chia seed or flaxseed mix to the ingredients and combine everything together to form a batter.
5. Spoon the batter into the muffin paper cups and smooth the tops with the spoon.
6. Place in the oven and bake for 13 to 15 minutes, or until lightly golden brown on top. Place a skewer in the center of a muffin and if it comes out clean, it’s ready.
