🍌Tahini + banana breakfast muffins 🍌
These are muffins are super tasty- I love them as a mid-afternoon snack for myself as well as for a grab and go breakfast for my little one. They are sugar-free but get a natural sweetness from the banana and a touch of cinnamon. Packed with protein and iron - and a mega source of dairy-free calcium from the tahini - making them a great snack option for milk allergy babies
YOU NEED:
2 ripe bananas, mashed with a fork
2 eggs (or 2 flax eggs – 2 tbsp ground flax + 5 tbsp water left for 10 mins)
60ml (¼ cup) tahini- make sure it’s runny!
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp baking powder
100g (1 cup) wholemeal flour
2 tablespoons of whole oats
TO MAKE:
Preheat your oven to 180°C. Line a muffin tin or use muffin cakes (I’ve used a 12 hole tin with cases)
Mix together the mashed banana, eggs (or flax), and tahini in a bowl until smooth. Stir in the cinnamon, baking powder, flour and oats until well combined
Spoon the mix into your muffin tin and bake for around 15–18 mins or so, until golden and a skewer comes out clean. Cool on a rack, then serve!
These muffins are also freezer-friendly- just grab them out the night before to allow them to defrost
