Instructions
- These muffins will be one of the easiest recipes you’ll ever make.Start by preheating the oven to 180°C / 350°F on the fan setting.
- Now mix all the dry ingredients in a bowl. That’s the flour, cocoa, sugar, baking soda, salt and baking powder.
- In a second bowl, take care of the wet ingredients: mash the banana with a fork, then mix it with applesauce, plant milk, nut butter, vinegar and vanilla until smooth and creamy.
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir gently until a batter forms. Carefully fold in the chocolate chips at the end, don't overmix.
- Divide the batter evenly into the muffin liners and fill them up so the muffins rise nicely.
- It's baking time! Place the muffins in the oven and bake for around 20 minutes. Do the toothpick test: if only a few moist crumbs stick to it, they’re perfect. Depending on your oven and preheating time it can take up to 25 minutes to bake them.
- Once your muffins are done, let them cool for a few minutes, take them out of the tin and then all that's left is to enjoy your healthy treat!
