Vegan Matcha Muffins
These vegan matcha muffins are quick, easy and delicious. Made with white whole wheat flour, maple syrup, coconut oil and mashed banana, these green tea muffins are soft and fluffy!
Ingredients
- 2 flax eggs
- 1 1/2 cups white whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 1/2 Tbsp matcha powder
- ½ cup mashed banana about 1 medium banana
- 6 tbsp applesauce about 4 oz
- 1/2 cup maple syrup this may be increased a bit if you prefer a sweeter muffin
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup melted coconut oil, cooled
- ½ cup chocolate chips optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and grease a muffin tin or line with muffin liners.
- Make your flax eggs. To make a flax egg, combine 3 Tbsp of water with 1 Tbsp ground flax seed. Make two servings.
- In a large bowl, mix dry ingredients (flour, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, matcha powder).
- In a separate bowl, combine mashed banana, applesauce, flax eggs, maple syrup, vanilla extract and coconut oil.
- Combine the flour mixture with the wet mixture.
- Add chocolate chips last. Be careful not to overmix. The dough should be moist and not dry.
- Scoop the batter into the muffin tins, topping with more chocolate chips if desired.
- Bake for 22-26 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean (Mine were perfect at 23 minutes).
- Enjoy!
