This is a gluten free, slightly modified version of my Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins. Instead of using pumpkin, I wanted to try the combination of yam with banana. It worked!
Banana Yam Muffins (GF)
“WET” INGREDIENTS:
1/2 C mashed yam (about 1 medium)
2 medium very ripe bananas, mashed
*2 cubes applesauce (about a scant 1/4 cup)
1 T organic canola oil
1/3 C organic brown sugar
1/4 C evaporated cane juice (vegan sugar)
2 t vanilla extract
2/3 C non-dairy milk
*So that I always have applesauce on hand for low-fat baking, I freeze unsweetened applesauce in ice cube trays, then thaw a few cubes at a time.
DRY INGREDIENTS:
1/2 C EACH: millet flour, quinoa flour, brown rice flour, garbanzo bean flour
2/3 C oat flour (GF)
1/3 C rolled oats (GF)
2 T ground flax seed
2 T unsweetened finely shredded coconut
2 t baking powder
1 t baking soda
1 t salt
1 t cinnamon
1/2 t nutmeg
1/8 t ground clove
INSTRUCTIONS:
Mix the “wet” ingredients and the dry ingredients separately, then combine. Bake in muffin liners at 350 degrees for 23 minutes. Makes 14.
Note: This is a slightly modified, gluten-free version of my Almond Butter Strawberry Energy Bar recipe. The cinnamon really makes the difference!
You can find me eating one of these this weekend at Mission Ridge Ski & Board Resort 🙂
“Wet” Ingredients:
1 box (12.3 oz) Firm Silken Tofu (Mori Nu)
1/2 C vegan brown sugar or 1/3 C fruit jam
1/2 C non-dairy milk
1 t vanilla extract
2/3 C Once Again sunflower seed butter
Dry Ingredients:
1/4 C EACH: quinoa flour, millet flour, brown rice flour, garbanzo bean flour & rolled oats (GF)
1/3 C oat flour (GF)
3 T ground flax
2 T fine shred unsweetened coconut
1 t cinnamon
1/2 t salt
In a food processor, puree the “wet” ingredients. Add to the dry ingredients. Spread the mixture in a greased square glass pan. (I like to use coconut oil to grease pans.) Bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes. Cool completely before cutting. A pastry cutter works well. Store in the freezer with a little space between each bar.
