Banana Flax Blender Muffins
Try these easy banana blender muffins as part of your follicular phase seed cycling protocol. Full of flax and pumpkin seeds these muffins support healthy estrogen production in the first half of your cycle.
Ingredients
- 2 ripe bananas
- 1/4 cup melted coconut or avocado oil
- 1/3 cup coconut yoghurt
- 1/3 cup whole flax seeds
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 1 tbs lemon juice
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 2 tbs maple syrup (optional & depends on how sweet you like 'em)
- 1/4 cup coconut flakes
- 1/4 cup pumpkin seeds
- 1/4 cup dark chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat the over to 350F. Add the flax seeds and rolled oats to a high-powdered blender (we're a vitamix household!) and blend for 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until oats and flax seeds are broken down and resemble the texture of coarse flour. Add the remaining ingredients, except for the coconut, chocolate chips + pumpkin seeds, and blend for 2 minutes until batter is smooth and well-mixed. Stir in the pumpkin, coconut and chocolate chips and scoop 2 heaping table spoons into each well of a greased or lined muffin tin. Bake for 25 minutes - these muffins keep covered on the counter for around 3 days, and are good for another 4 days in the fridge.
