Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp Olive oil or coconut oil
  • 1 tbsp Almond flour/meal Bob's Red Mill
  • 2 tbsp Flaxseed meal ground
  • 1/2 tbsp Coconut flour
  • 1 large egg Egg
  • 1/8 cup slices Banana mashed
  • 1/2 tsp Swerve Sweetener confectioners (add another 1/2 tsp if you want it a bit sweeter)
  • 1 tbsp Pecans chopped into small pieces
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract pure
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Baking powder

Instructions

  • Put olive oil or melted coconut oil in a ramekin or other container (should be about 4" in diameter with a flat bottom).
  • Add all other ingredients and stir until well combined. Let sit for a minute to allow the mixture to thicken.
  • Microwave for about 90 seconds, or until firm. Run a knife along the edge and flip over a plate to release your muffin.
  • Alternatively, bake in 350 degree oven for 12-15 minutes. Be sure to grease the bottom of the ramekin if you do it in the oven.

Notes

You can assemble serving size portions of the dry ingredients in small zip-lock bags so they're ready to go in the morning. Just add the liquid ingredients.
Add a bit of banana-flavoured extract for more banana flavour.
