The muffins are back, and better than ever!
I must admit, I was worried that baking Gluten Free wouldn't
be the same, but these muffins surely speak for themselves :)
Banana Chocolate Chunk Muffins
Recipe created by Snacking Squirrel
2 cups gluten free flour
1/2 cup brown sugar
(or sweeten with stevia)
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp sea salt
1 cup plain yogurt
1 cup dark chocolate
2 large mashed bananas
1/8 cup milk or water
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp lemon juice
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 Fahrenheit
2. Mix all the dry ingredients separately in a bowl
3. In another bowl, mash the bananas
4. Combine the bananas with the rest of the wet ingredients
5. Pour wet mix into dry mix and fold gently, without over-stirring
6. Scoop generously into greased muffin pan, overflowing batter over rim
(this helps create big-top-bakery-style muffins)
7. Reduce oven temperature to 375 Fahrenheit and bake for 25 minutes

This recipe looks amazing! I have all the ingredients in my cupboard and I am working from home today... could make for an amazing mid-day break!
YUM! I so need to make these ASAP!
Wow those look awesome Kelsey! I love that there's a chunk of banana right on top - yum!
All hail the muffin queen! Seriously, girl, you really rock the muffin aisle ;) I love how there is a big banana in the middle!
All you need to do is add a HUGE scoop of peanut butter, and it will be my perfect muffin! I have been lovin the pb+banana+chocolate combo as of late!!!!
Those are beautiful! YUM!
These muffins look stunning, girl! I really want to try them but I don't think I can find gluten-free flours where I live. Will they still be good with normal flour?
ahh youve done it again! thse look amazing! how is it so far being gluten-free??? i hope you are doing better =)
wow, wow, WOW!
I'm not sure if I've ever bookmarked a recipe that fast! Can't wait to give these a try...
I wish I had time to make these this morning! Banana and chocolate together is amazing!

These look delicious! I am glad to see that eliminating gluten isn't stopping you from enjoying your beloved muffins!
You've done it again, with your muffin tops :) Hopefully these are an indicator of how well the gluten free living is going! I really love the idea of the chunk of banana on top.
Open a muffin bakery, yeah?? Then give me a job (I'll work for muffins... ;) )

These just scream "delicious!"

oh wow those look amazing!!!! totally droolworthy and they look healthy, too! Do you think they'd work with wheat flour too?
HOLY CRAP! They look AMAZING! And good for you :)!
God - you should really sell these muffins - not kidding!
Love your comments on my blog - means so much to me ;)
Those look scrumptious! :D
banana chunk chocolate muffins more like; loveee them
I can't remember what kind of muffins I suggested, but if I didn't suggest these, I should have! They look so yummy!
Oh, wow!I will surely be making those with stevia!
Muffins look delish..but of course. Photo#1? Most certainly a face in the banana. See it? It'like a scrunchy face.
Zucchini Muffins?
oh i LOVE that you put a banana slice on each muffin! i bet it made them exxxxxxxxtra nanery!
Somehow the muffin looks huge on my screen ....drooooooling! :-)
Hi love! Thank you so much for your comment <3 I replied to it on my blog but wanted to thank you again because it meant so very much to me. You are so supportive and amazing.
Your muffins look so good, as always. Have you ever tried baking with coconut sugar? I actually have never tried myself, but I've heard it can be a good replacement for brown sugar (my body is not doing so well with the refined sugar these days). Anyway, they are beautiful! As are you.
xoxo
So I just bookmarked this recipe, and WOW Kelsey! I think these are the best muffins you've posted yet. THEY ARE GLORIOUS LOOKING!!1 I'm going to have to scout around for a muffin pan because I only have this singular silicone muffin cups. I want some of that muffin top action :D They've got it goin' onnn.
XOXO!!!
Oh my gosh :D I don't have those particular flours at home but I've got lots of ripe bananers and chocolate chunks!! I guess I could swap the flour, these look super good!! I realize I'm not making much sense, lol the muffins are making me think with my belly ;)
Alright, this is the last straw...I'm going to move in with you. Be there tomorrow! :D But for real, these are freakin incredible. You, my friend, rock.
Oh my heck, Kelsey!! These are so beyond amazing. Do you think they would work with whole wheat pastry flour instead? I must make these asap!
Wow, those muffins look absolutely incredible! I especially love the banana on top- I actually don't think I've ever seen that done before. One thing's for sure though, I've definitely got some muffin cravings going on now :)
Yummm I love the banana chunks on top!
Next time I'm home I must stock up on these GF flours so I can make my own blend :)
Funny muffins! They look cute!
I'm not a huge fan of banana, but I like your idea putting a piece on top.
Thank you for your very sweet comment on my blog! :)
These look absolutely amazing... Loving the chunk of banana right on top! mmmmm.... :)
Hurray for muffins! They look awesome :)
WOWOWOWOW! I love how you threw banana chunk right in the middle-these look sooooo good!
you had me at banana and chocolate :P
i love that banana on top! better than any marshmallow
These looks AWESOME! I love the banana chunk on top, soooo cute! Great job, Kelsey!
WHOA GIRL!! These look AMAZING! I want to make them right now! I love the huge chunks of banana in the center...Never seen that before and such a great idea. I'm selfishly glad you're GF now, because I can enjoy all your recipes! :-)
Hope you're having a wonderful Saturday!
holy FUDDGGEEE these look SO good. I just started making gluten free muffins too - and they are awesome! I LOVE the different texture. the crumblility is awesome, especially into a bowl of greek yogurt and nut butter.......mmm breakfast ahora.
Those are absolutely beautiful! I'm salivating on my keyboard. A friend of mine is recently gluten-free...I'm going to have to try these out.
Those look so cool!
MMMMMMMMM,..what amazing, grand & fab looking gf banana & chocolate chunk muffins!! Now, I would like to savour at least 3!!!!
They look incredible!!!
I loved the texture of these muffins, but they turned out way too sweet for me (possibly because I didn't realize when I printed the recipe that "dark chocolate" meant unsweetened — I use semi-sweet organic chocolate). Without much fat or any protein to balance the sugar, they are unsatisfying and very very sweet. I prefer grainy and fruity muffins with a hint of chocolate or spice, but without so much sweetness. I think they would be good as a dessert, maybe warmed with some ice cream on top? They are improved if you butter them as you eat them. I'm sure people who love cake will like these. They were really fun to make!
