Gluten Free Banana Walnut Muffin recipe

Whenever my bananas are ripe, I like to make different dessert dishes. This one was my favorite so far. Gluten-Free Banana Walnut Muffin. My son had friends over, so I decided to make this one as an alternative to brownies. It was delicious, and they were all gone.

Note: since this is gluten-free, it will make only 12 cupcakes. You may also have a little more left. You can distribute the amount among the cupcakes or discard it.

GF Banana Walnut Muffin Recipe Ingredients:

3-4 ripe Bananas - mashed
1 Egg
½ cup Canola Oil or Vegetable Oil
1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract (Affiliate Link)
2 cups of Gluten-free All Purpose Flour (I used the Wegmans brand)
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon (Affiliate Link)
½ teaspoon salt
¼ cup of Walnut
¼ - ½ cup of coconut (unsweetened) 
1 tablespoon Flax seed

Gluten-Free Banana Walnut Muffin Recipe Instructions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In a mixer (Affiliate Link), add bananas and mix up until mashed. Then add egg, oil, and vanilla.

In another bowl, mix gluten-free flour, baking soda, cinnamon (Affiliate Link), and salt set aside.

Then slowly add the already mixed gluten-free flour mixture to the mixer (Affiliate Link). It should absorb the liquid and be ready for the featured ingredients. If you go too fast, it will make a flour cloud in your kitchen.

Next, I added walnut, coconut, and flax seeds and mix on the low setting.

Now, add cupcake liners to one tray, making sure there is only one-liner in each tray. They do stick together. I used the unbleached cupcake liners (Amazon Affiliate Link).

Now, it's time to add the batter to the muffin pan. Use a larger ice scooper (Amazon Affiliate Link) and scoop out enough to fill a cupcake area ¾ full.

Place in oven and cook for 25 to 40 minutes.

Take them out of the pan and let them cool completely. Be careful, as the pan is hot. Be sure to use oven mitts.

And this is what they looked like when they had cooled before the kids devoured them.

Other things you can add to this gluten-free banana walnut muffin recipe

You can add shredded carrots, raisins, cranberries, and chocolate chips to the muffin mix. Just swap out the flax seed and coconuts and use the same measurement as them.

What tools do you need to make this muffin recipe?

You will need a mixer (Affiliate Link) to break the bananas into small enough pieces to distribute them correctly. You will also need a large muffin pan (Affiliate Link) for 12 muffins, measuring cups (Affiliate Link), measuring spoons (Affiliate Link), and muffin lines the same size as your pan.
