This a my twist on my beloved banana bread from my second cookbook The new green protein, in the form of a muffin! Moist, savoury and perfect to bring to your picnic, as snack or serve for weekend breakfast. For variation try adding berries to the batter before baking them!

Also, fo a even more savoury muffins add a handful of finely grated carrot or parsnip!

Savoury banana muffins with ginger and cinnamon

Makes 12

Ingredients

2 dl / 0.8 cups oat flour

2 dl / 0.8 cups buckwheat flour

2 tsp ground ginger

2 tsp ground cinnamon

1/2 tsp salt

1 tsp baking powder

1 tsp bicarbonate of soda

3 green bananas (as in not the most ripe ones)

3 Tbsp shia seeds

1 1/2 dl / 1 cup unsweetened oat mylk, or your choice of plant mylk OR water

1/2 dl / 0.2 cups cold pressed rapeseeds oil

How to

Pre heat the oven to 175 degrees Celsius / 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Bring the oat mylk to a boil, remove from heat and mix with the chia seeds. Let sit for 10 minutes until you get a pudding, mix half way through to avoid the chia seeds from clumping.

Peel and mash the bananas with a fork.

Combine all the dry ingredients in a bowl.

Add the chia mix, banana and oil to the dry mix and stir until you get a sticky batter. Divide in to 12 muffin moulds. Bake in the oven for 30-35 minutes, until the muffins get all golden.

ENJOY!

Ps. Check if the muffins are ready sticking a toothpick in the center of the muffin, the toothpick should come out clean with only a couple of crumbs clinging to the sides when the muffins are done!
