Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups gluten free flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ cup Vital Proteins Matcha Collagen or 1 tablespoon matcha powder

Wet Ingredients

  • ½ cup Truvia Baking Blend
  • ¼ cup coconut oil softened
  • 3 medium ripe bananas
  • cup dairy free Greek yogurt
  • ½ cup applesauce
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Other Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425F. Line a muffin tin with baking cups and spray them with coconut oil or cooking spray.
  • To a medium bowl add flour, baking soda, baking powder, matcha collagen and salt. Whisk together and set aside.
  • Add wet ingredients to a large bowl and stir together until well mixed. Add dry ingredients and stir until just blended. Fold in chocolate chips.
  • Use an ice cream scoop to evenly portion out 12 muffins.
  • Bake at 425F for 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to 350F and bake for 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean.
  • Allow muffins to cool in pan on a baking rack.

Notes

  • These matcha muffins are made using Vital Proteins Matcha Collagen. To use powder reduce from ¼ cup collagen to 1 tablespoon powder.
  • Fill muffin liners ¾ of the way full so that muffins bake evenly and you have enough batter for 12.
  • Use paper or silicone liners to reduce mess and sticking. I like the parchment paper liners that work really well for baking.
  • Storage: store cooled muffins in an airtight container on the counter for up to 2 days or store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
  • Freezer: freeze cooled muffins an a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months.
