Paleo Banana Muffins

By SushiChick

A good friend bestowed this recipe upon me in the midst of a food and fitness challenge (no sugar, no alcohol, no gluten) The moist texture and natural sweet/salty flavor make these muffins a keeper long after the diet has ceased.

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a small bowl, combine flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon.

In a food processor, combine dates, bananas, eggs, vinegar and oil.

Combine wet and dry ingredients and mix well until completely blended. We used the Vitamix and it was, once again, brilliant. (If using walnuts, fold in gently.)

Spoon mixture into paper-lined muffin cups. Bake at 350 for 25 minutes.
