Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375 F and line a 12 cup muffin pan with 7-8 muffin liners. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, mash the banana and combine with the zucchini, maple syrup, and coconut oil.
  • Combine the dry ingredients in a separate bowl. Pour in the wet ingredients and mix well to combine.
  • Use 1 regular egg if tolerated, or prepare the gelatin egg by pouring the water into a small pot and sprinkling over the gelatin. Allow hardening for 2-3 minutes. Add the pot to the stove top set to low heat and allow to melt and return to liquid. This should take 1-2 minutes. Once liquid, whisk vigorously until frothy. Add to the batter mixture and stir well to combine.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Fill the muffins liners about 3/4 of the way full with batter. Top off with a few more chocolate chips if desired.
  • Bake in the oven for 30 minutes or until the muffins are lightly golden brown and a when a toothpick is inserted, it comes out clean.
  • Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely (set for 1-2 hours in the fridge if gelatin egg is used) before serving.
