These gluten free, dairy free, grain free and sugar free banana muffins are a go-to in our house! Easy and fun to make with my 3 year old, they are a healthy way to incorporate baked goods without compromising health.
Bananas are packed with potassium and ripe, are actually very good for those working with SIBO. According to the Medical Medium, ripe, speckled bananas suffocate the harmful bacteria living in the gut. Almonds are a great source of Omega-3’s for brain and health. As I worked to overcome gut dysbiosis and dysfunction, it was pleasing to find recipes like this that are gut and healing friendly.
We use these now to replace cupcakes. For a dessert option, top with vegan buttercream frosting.
