Banana Mini Muffins and a Muffin Mix

I came across a recipe the other day on superhealthykids. It is a super easy and healthy muffin mix with endless possibilities of items that can be added in. We opted to make some mini muffins with cinnamon and banana once the "Master Mix" was made.

Master Mix
  • 8 cups of whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 cup coconut sugar
  • 1/3 cup baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 1 cup coconut oil (in the solid state)

Mix all the dry ingredients together, and then cut in the solid coconut oil as if it were shortening.  Use a food processor with pastry blade to incorporate it well into the dry ingredients.

Store your mix at room temperature or below.  Any warmer, and your coconut oil will become soft and liquid.  If you live in a very warm climate, store your mix in the fridge.

Banana Mini Muffins
·         2 1/3 cup “Master Mix”
·         1 Egg
·         1 Cup of milk (used 2%)
·         1 banana, chopped into small pieces
·         1 tsp cinnamon

Pre heat oven to 400 degrees, grease or use paper muffin liners in a 24 mini muffin tin.
Stir all ingredients together until well blended. Scoop into muffin tins and bake 10-12 minutes.
