1 tbsp coconut oil
14g
1 cup egg whites
240g
1 tsp vanilla extract
4.20g
1 tbsp honey
20g
1/4 cup whole-grain wheat flour
30g
2/3 cup oats
100g
2 tsp baking powder
10g
1 tsp baking soda
5g
1 tsp stevia leaf sweetener
3g
1 tsp salt
6g
1/4 tsp cinnamon
0.65g
1 oz chocolate candies
27g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
2. Prepare the Wet Ingredients:
In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas until smooth. Add the Greek yogurt, almond butter, melted coconut oil, egg whites, vanilla extract, and honey. Mix well until the ingredients are fully combined.
3. Combine Dry Ingredients:
In a separate bowl, mix together the whole-grain wheat flour, oats, baking powder, baking soda, stevia leaf sweetener, salt, and cinnamon.
4. Mix Wet and Dry Ingredients:
Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients. Stir until just combined; be careful not to overmix.
5. Add Chocolate Candies:
Gently fold in the roughly chopped chocolate candies into the batter.
6. Fill Muffin Tin:
Evenly distribute the muffin batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
7. Bake:
Place in the preheated oven and bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
8. Cool:
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for about 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. Serve and Enjoy:
Enjoy your delicious and healthy Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins!

Tips:

- Make sure your bananas are ripe as they will provide more natural sweetness and moisture to the muffins.

- For a dairy-free version, substitute Greek yogurt with a plant-based yogurt alternative.

- Fold in the chocolate candies gently to ensure they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.

- If you prefer a sweeter muffin, you can add an extra tablespoon of honey or more stevia leaf sweetener.

- Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack, which helps prevent them from becoming too crumbly.
