If you love chocolate you will love these muffins! The sweet potatoes and banana help create the perfect texture. These muffins are perfect for a healthy sweet dessert or a snack.

This recipe is from My Whole Food Life:

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups oat flour (can grind rolled oats in a blender to flour consistency)
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 2 tsp baking soda
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • 2 cups cooked and pureed sweet potato
  • 1 mashed banana (can also use 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce or more sweet potato)
  • 1/3 cup date syrup (can also use 12 Medjool dates)

Directions:

  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • In one bowl, add the oat flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and cinnamon and mix together.
  • In another bowl add the sweet potato, banana, and date syrup and stir. If using dates instead of date syrup, it is easiest to blend the dates with a little water in a high speed blender. Then you can just add the sweet potato and banana and blend until all combined.
  • Add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and mix with a spoon until combined.
  • Spoon the batter into a muffin tin lined with cupcake liners or silicone baking cups.
  • Bake for 11-13 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  • Let the muffins cool before removing from the pan.
  • Store in an airtight container in the fridge. They should last at least 7-10 days. You can also freeze them for up to 6 months.
