Almond Banana Coconut Muffins {Gluten Free}

Unbelievably moist.  Also quite nutritious, so I didn’t hesitate when Finnian requested one for breakfast.

Only added coconut to the original recipe found on Honest Fare since I didn’t want to open up a brand new bag of almond flour.  It was a great move :)

Almond Banana Coconut Muffins {Gluten Free}

8 oz. almond meal
2 oz. unsweetened dried coconut
½ teaspoon baking powder
2 eggs
3 oz. sugar
½ teaspoon cinnamon
3 ripe bananas (lightly spotted)
extra ½ banana, thinly cut, and sliced almonds for topping

Preheat oven to 300F. Grease muffin tin and dust with flour or line with shallow baking cups.
 
Mix together almond meal, coconut, and baking powder.  Set aside.

Process eggs, sugar, bananas and cinnamon for 3-5 minutes in a food processor.  Stir into the almond meal mixture.

Divide into 12-15 muffins, filling about 2/3 full.  Top with thinly sliced bananas and almonds. Bake about 35-40 minutes or until top is browned and toothpick comes out clean.  Let cool in muffin tin for several minutes, then transfer to cooling rack.
