Paleo Banana Muffins
I have another recipe for banana muffins from Multiply Delicious, but it calls for A LOT of almond butter and almond flour. Both are expensive, so I tried to find a recipe that didnt call for the almond butter. I found this one from the Living Healthy with Chocolate blog, and they turned out great! They tasted just as moist as the other recipe.
Ingredients
- 1½ cup almond flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp salt
- 3 bananas (I used apple bananas)
- 1 tbs raw honey
- 1 egg, beaten
- 5 tbs butter, melted
- ⅓ cup raw pecans, chopped
Crumbs:
- 2 tbs almond flour
- ⅛ tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 tbs butter
Instructions
- preheat the oven at 350°F
- in a bowl mix the almond flour, baking soda and salt
- in a separate bowl, mash the bananas and mix in the honey, egg and melted butter
- pour the banana mixture into the flour mixture and stir to combine
- fold in chopped pecans
- spoon the batter into paper lined muffin pan cups
Crumbs:
- mix together the almond flour, cinnamon and butter until mixture resemble coarse cornmeal and sprinkle over the top of each muffin
- bake for 17 minutes or until tops turn golden brown
Moroccan Smoothie: Banana & Avacado

Ingredients:
- 1 avocado, halved, pitted, and peeled
- 1/2 cup fresh orange juice, from 1 medium orange
- 2 bananas
- 1/4 cup plain yogurt
- 2 tsp sugar
- 1 tbsp freshly grated ginger
- Juice of 1 lime
- 1/2 tsp salt
Directions:
Combine the avocado, orange juice, bananas, yogurt and sugar in a blender and puree until smooth. Add the ginger and blend until well combined, then mix in the lime juice and salt. Divide the puree among four glasses and serve immediately.
* I make this withough the yogurt and sugar, and add a little vanilla protein powder. It’s good either way 🙂 Also, when my brother was serving in the peace corps in Morocco he drank a very similar smoothie that also had dates in it. I’ve tried that too and it’s great!
The original recipe is from Marcus Samuelson and is found here.
