Ingredients
  • 2 cups gluten-free flour blend
  • 1½ teaspoons baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon xantham gum
  • 4 overripe bananas
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • ¾ cup (1½ sticks) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
  • 2 eggs
  • 1½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • ½ cup pecans, chopped
  • 6 tablespoons cinnamon sugar
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Prepare muffin tin with liners or grease.
  2. In a large bowl stir together the flour, baking soda, salt and xantham gum. In a small bowl mash two of your bananas with a fork so that there is still some texture left in the bananas. Place the two remaining bananas and brown sugar in a large bowl. Beat the bananas and brown sugar together with an electric mixer on medium speed for 3 minutes. Add the melted butter, eggs and vanilla and beat until the mixture is combined. Stir in the flour mixture until there are no white streaks. Gently fold in the smashed banana and nuts if you are lucky enough to have nut eaters at your house. Pour into prepared muffin tins, you will have enough batter for 18 or so muffins. Sprinkle each muffin with a teaspoon or so of the cinnamon sugar. Bake for 15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
