Berry, Banana & Walnut Muffins

You would never guess that these Paleo Muffins have no added sugar – all the sweetness comes from the bananas! These gluten-free muffins make a great breakfast or snack. The only flour these use is coconut flour, and you can’t sub anything else! Coconut flour is uniquely absorbent and no other flour will match the texture you get from using coconut flour here. I opted for walnuts as the nut, which I feel are fairly traditional for banana nut muffins, but feel free to sub whichever nut is your favorite (or whatever you have). These are a real treat, whether it’s for breakfast, a snack, or a welcome lunchbox addition. Happy baking!
