Peanut Butter Stuffed Banana Muffins

Peanut Butter Stuffed Banana Muffins

Banana muffins are one of my favorite types of muffins, but I get bored easily so I am always mixing things up.  These muffins are stuffed with peanut butter and topped with a banana slice.

Ingredients:

1 cup coconut flour

½ cup powdered peanut butter

¼ cup vanilla protein powder

¼ cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk

3 bananas mashed

1 banana sliced

1 teaspoon creamy peanut butter per muffin

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

½ teaspoon baking soda

½ teaspoon salt

¼ cup packed brown sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 large egg whites

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees and spray muffin tins with nonstick spray.
  2. Mash the bananas in a stand mixer.  Add in the egg whites, brown sugar, vanilla extract, and milk.
  3. Whisk the flour, powdered peanut butter, vanilla protein powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.
  4. Gradually fold the dry ingredients in with the wet ingredients.
  5. Use a medium muffin scooper to put a ball of the muffin mixture in each muffin tin. Gently press down to flatten. 
  6. Top each muffin with a teaspoon of peanut butter.
  7. Use the muffin scooper to cover the peanut butter and gently press down.
  8. Top each muffin with a banana slice.
  9. Bake 22-25 minutes until muffins are cooked through.
  10. Let muffins cool in a muffin tin for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  11. Let cool completely before transferring to an air-tight container.
  12. Enjoy!
