Irresistible Chocolate Muffins GF, SF

Try out healthy recipes all the time, but if it wasn’t for my food critic living at home I would make the silly mistake of publishing only something I would eat! Fortunately my 5 year old and I have very different tastes. I know if it passes her test, it must be worth telling all of the mom’s out there!

I keep a stash in the freezer so I can pop one in her lunchbox in the morning!

Ingredients

This recipe should make 20-25 small muffins.

Turn of oven 150C fan forced 160C

  • 2 cups of almond meal (if you don’t have macadamia)
  • 3 eggs
  • 3 bananas
  • 1 cup of soaked pitted dates (drained)
  • 1/4 cup of coconut oil
  • 2 Tbls of Cacao or to taste
  • 1/4 cup of dark chocolate drops
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp of cardamom
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Instructions

  1. Bake for 20 minutes depending on how big the muffin trays you are using.
  2. Check them with a fork and when it comes out clean they are ready!!!

Tip: If you have a high speed blender or thermomix you can make your own almond or macadamia meal by blending it until it becomes a soft powder.

Tip: If you soak your dates in hot water for 5-10 minutes and drain them its so much easier to blend.
