Healthy Whole Wheat Banana Muffins with Maple Walnut Streusel

These Healthy Whole Wheat Banana Muffins are much healthier than the store-bought versions, which are pretty much a cupcake with all the sugar and fat. These dairy free muffins are made with whole wheat flour, old fashioned oats, milled flax seeds and slightly sweetened with ripe bananas, maple syrup and a touch of organic coconut sugar. They will help aid in digestion and are lower in sugar.

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375℉ / 190℃ and line muffin tin with paper liners or spray with a non-stick cooking spray.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, oats, milled flax seeds, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, mash bananas with a fork (or potato masher tool.)
  • Next, add the eggs, butter, maple syrup, sugar, milk and vanilla extract and stir with a fork just until no flour pockets remain.
  • Fill each liner with muffin batter to the top and then sprinkle chopped walnuts on the top of each and gently press them down into batter slightly.
  • Next, add maple syrup to a small microwave safe bowl and heat in microwave for 15-20 seconds on high.
  • Add coconut sugar and cinnamon, then stir to combine. Use a spoon to drizzle a little of maple mixture on top of each muffin.
  • Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a wooden toothpick inserted comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  • Let muffins cool in pan for five minutes, then transfer muffins to a cooling rack to cool completely…or enjoy one while they are warm!
