25 minute banana muffins (dairy, oil, refined sugar free!)

 

i still had 2 more medium/large overly ripe bananas, and wanted to make something more 'grab & go' - and these were prefect. honestly...i might prefer the texture to these over the banana bread i made last week. 

they turned out to be more fluffy and moist than the banana bread, i replaced oil with applesauce (1 pouch of go go squeeze, to be exact!), and that was *chef's kiss*

ingredients

• 2 medium bananas
• 1/2 cup maple syrup
• 1 tbsp vanilla extract
• 1 tbsp cinnamon
• 2 eggs
• 1 and 1/2 cup flour
• 1 tsp baking soda
