Vegan and Dairy Free Banana Muffins
It takes only a handful of ingredients and about 30 minutes to make these super moist dairy free banana muffins. The vegan muffin recipe uses only one bowl for the hand mixed batter.
Servings: 12 muffins
Calories: 237kcal
Ingredients
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 1 cup light brown sugar packed
- ½ cup oil ~ I use either extra virgin olive oil canola oil or vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 4 very ripe and large bananas ~ about 2 cups mashed
- 10 ounce bag dairy free mini chocolate chips divided
- sanding sugar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a muffin pan with muffin liners. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, add the flour, light brown sugar, oil, baking soda, baking powder, kosher salt, mashed bananas and 1 ½ cups of the mini chocolate chips. Stir lightly 15 to 20 times or until the ingredients are just moistened. There will still be a few small lumps.
- Divide the batter between the 12 muffin cups.
- Sprinkle with the remaining mini chocolate chips and the sanding sugar.
- Bake for 28 to 32 minutes. The muffins are done when the tops bounce back slightly when lightly touched or the internal temperature is 205 degrees F on a digital thermometer.
- Remove from the oven and let cool 5 to 10 minutes before removing from the pan to a cooling rack.
- Store in a covered container for up to 3 days.
Notes
Variations
Add dried fruit ~ In place of the mini chocolate chips, add dried cranberries, blueberries or raisins.
Stir in chopped nuts ~ Chop pecans, walnuts, almonds or peanuts to stir into the batter. About ½ cup along with the chocolate chips is delicious.
Add spices ~ Stir in 1 teaspoon of cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice. Or add ¼ teaspoon of cloves or allspice.
Make mini muffins ~ Poppable mini muffins are always a fave. Scoop the batter into a greased or lined mini muffin pan.
