The perfect grain free chocolate muffin with a texture very similar to a normal old school muffin with plain flour. Possible? Yes, by coincidence I made up the recipe and it was a hit!

Turn the oven on to 180 C (360 F) and prepare muffin forms on a baking tray.

In a big bowl:

  • 1 medium sized zucchini, grated
  • 1 banana
  • 4 eggs
  • 2-4 tbsp honey or maple syrup, depending on who is eating… 🙂
  • 3 tbsp. coconut oil

In a smaller bowl:

  • 5 tbsp. almond flour
  • 100 ml (0.4 cup) coconut flour
  • 5-6 tbsp. cacao powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Mix and then add to the wet ingredients.

Mix all well and fill muffin forms. Bake in the lower part of the oven for 25 minutes.
