Flourless Chocolate Banana Nut Muffins

Here's a new favourite of Beau's. I made these on a whim for him to take to school to share with his classmates. Apparently it was a hit! :)

Ingredients: 

4 squares semisweet chocolate, chopped
1/2 cup butter or use coconut oil or margarine for vegan version
3/4 cup cane sugar
1/2 cup cocoa powder + more for dusting the muffin tins
3 eggs, beaten or use flax gel for vegan version 
1 cup nuts of your choice, chopped
1 ripe banana, mashed
1 tsp vanilla extract


Preheat oven to 300F. Grease a 12 muffin tin, and dust with cocoa powder. 
 
In a double boiler over low heat, melt chocolate and butter. Remove from heat, and stir in sugar, cocoa powder, eggs, banana, nuts and vanilla. ~~Add an extra banana for extra banana-y goodness~~


Pour batter equally into prepared muffin tins.
 

Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes. Let cool in tins for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack and cool completely.



Happy Baking my Foodies :)
