Sugarproof Blueberry Banana Muffins: Tasty Dessert For All

Baking Blueberry Banana Muffins that are Sugarproof

Since the batter is made with almond flour and oats, you should know that it is high in fiber and protein. When you make the batter in a blender or a food processor is one of the best ways to give a light texture. However, if you don’t own one yet, don’t worry, as you can still make the mashing of the bananas through your hands or getting pre-ground oat flour.

You may also use whole rolled oats and mix the batter in a bowl. It’s pretty easy and will not require you too much of your time. This recipe is truly tested whether you use medium or large bananas. And if you are using small ones, you may consider adding an extra half or another banana piece. Here are the ingredients you should never miss. 

• ¾ cup of rolled oats
• Oil for greasing the muffin tin
• One half teaspoon salt
• Four large eggs
• One half teaspoon baking soda
• Four medium or large bananas (ripe)
• Zest from a lemon (optional)
• A teaspoon of vanilla extract (with no added sugar)
• Almond flour (2 cups)
• Fresh blueberries – drained and rinsed well (1 cup)
