Choc-Coconut-Banana Muffins

Yummy sugar-free morsels for a mid-morning pick-me-up or what-do-i-put-in-the-darn-lunch-box-today dilemma...

Method

Preheat oven to 180c. Grease & flour muffin tins.
In a blender – blend bran, nibs, coconut & nuts til fine. Transfer to a bowl and add warm milk & coconut oil. Let soak for at least 20 mins.
Sift flour into bowl and add husks caught in sifter to it. Add the soaked bran & milk mixture, stevia, vanilla, bananas & wheat germ. Combine well without beating.
Spoon mixture into prepared tin, bake 12 mins or until cooked through. Cool on wire rack.

These muffins freeze really well.

  • ½ cup cocoa nibs
  • 1 cup shredded or desiccated coconut

  • 2 tablespoons wheat germ
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 2 mashed ripe bananas
  • 1 tsp vanilla paste
