Ingredients

  • 1 cup cassava flour
  • 1/2 cup arrowroot starch
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 cup carob
  • 2 ripe bananas, mashed yellow with black spots
  • 1/3 cup applesauce
  • 1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 cup coconut milk
  • 3 Tbsp coconut oil, melted
  • 1 tsp alcohol free vanilla extract
  • 3 Tbsp maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup Carob Chips
  • 1 Tbsp gelatin
  • 1/4 cup water for gelatin egg

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line a muffin pan with parchment paper liners.
  2. In a medium sized bowl combine the flours, cinnamon, baking soda, carob and salt together. Stir.

  3. In a large bowl combine the mashed banana, applesauce, apple cider vinegar, coconut milk, oil, vanilla and maple syrup. Whisk.

  4. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, whisking as you go. Whisk until thoroughly combined and no clumps.
  5. Stir in the carob chips.
  6. Prepare the gelatin egg- pour the water in a small pan. Slowly sprinkle the gelatin over the water in a thin layer and allow to bloom for 2 minutes. Turn the heat to medium low to melt the gelatin and then whisk until frothy.
  7. Pour the gelatin egg into the large bowl with the batter and quickly stir it in.
  8. Spoon the batter into the muffin cups filling them almost all of the way full.
  9. Bake for 20-30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean from the center of the muffin.
  10. Remove from the oven and let cool in pan for 10 minutes. Then carefully move to a cooling rack (leave in liners) and allow to cool completely.
  11. Store in the fridge for up to 1 week in a glass dish or in the freezer for up to 3 months. You may remove the liners for storage.
