What You Need to Make Healthy Strawberry Banana Muffins

To make this strawberry banana muffins recipe you will need a few simple ingredients. You can find all of these healthy ingredients in your local grocery store, or order them online.

1 cup gluten-free baking flour

2 Tbsp tapioca flour
2 tsp baking powder

When it comes to gluten-free baking, Bob’s Red Mill has many great gluten-free flour options and products. This recipe uses a few flours to create a delicious flour blend for these banana and strawberry muffins. If you can’t find these flours at the grocery store then you can always grab them online: 1:1 gluten-free baking flour, almond flour, and tapioca flour.

For the strawberries, make sure to use fresh strawberries and not frozen strawberries for this strawberry banana muffin recipe. And, for the bananas, overripe bananas will always offer the most natural sweetness. When bananas start to show brown spots, and the kids refuse to eat them – that is the best time to use bananas for baking.

For all muffin recipes, you will need a muffin pan, and paper liners to make these delicious strawberry banana muffins.

How to Make Strawberry Banana Muffins

First, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Then in a large bowl combine the dry ingredients. Add the gluten-free baking flour, and then the almond flour to the bowl.

Add the tapioca flour and baking powder to the bowl.

Next, in a separate bowl mash the banana with the back of a fork, or a potato masher.

Then add the eggs, coconut oil, and the maple syrup to the mashed bananas.

Mix the wet ingredients together until thoroughly combined and then pour into the dry ingredients.

Fold the juicy strawberries into the muffin batter.

How to Bake Banana and Strawberry Muffins

Line a muffin tin with muffin liners. I love using parchment paper liners. Any time I use parchment paper liners, I do not need to spray the muffin cups with cooking spray.

Spoon or scoop the muffin batter into the muffin cups. I use a 1/4 cup measuring cup to scoop equal amounts each time.

If you set aside a few extra strawberries, you can top each of the muffins with a strawberry slice.

Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes until golden brown, or until the muffins pass the toothpick test. Poke the center of a muffin with a clean toothpick, and if the toothpick comes out clean- the muffins are done. If the toothpick comes out wet with batter, then they need a few more minutes.

Remove the healthy strawberry banana muffins from the oven and place them on a wire rack to cool.
