There are two versions of this recipe, one that is gluten-free and one that uses an ancient grain called Spelt that does contain some gluten.
Depending on your health requirements, if you are strictly gluten-free then go with the first version that uses gluten-free rice flour.
2 ripe bananas, mashed
¼ cup (60ml) maple syrup
¼ cup (60ml) almond butter
¼ cup (30g) Bob’s Red Mill Gluten-Free Rice flour
1 tsp. baking powder
¼ tsp. baking soda
1 serving Daily Fiber
¼ cup (30g) walnuts
2 ripe bananas, mashed
¼ cup (60ml) maple syrup
¼ cup (60ml) almond butter
½ cup (55g) Spelt flour
1 tsp. baking powder
¼ tsp. baking soda
1 serving Daily Fiber
¼ cup (30g) walnuts
Here's what you need to do:
Heat the oven to 355°F (180°C) and line a muffin tray with paper muffin cups.
Mash the bananas with a fork and combine with the maple syrup and almond butter. Fold in the flour, baking powder, Daily Fiber, and baking soda and mix well.
For the Gluten-Free version, make sure to reduce the flour amount slightly to account for the higher density of the rice flour.
Divide the batter between the 6 muffin cups. Top each one with the walnuts.
Bake for about 18-20 minutes in the middle of the oven, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and cool completely before serving.

If you're a fan of banana bread, then this recipe is for you! It's made with spelt flour and almond butter instead of white all-purpose flour. That means it has more protein than average. You'll also get some fiber from Daily Fiber, in addition to healthy fats like omega 3s that come naturally from nuts. The walnuts on top provide another source of omega 6 fatty acids which are important when it comes to brain health as they help promote cell growth and reduce inflammation.
