Ingredients
  

  • 205g (¾ cup) About 2 medium ripe bananas
  • 150g (½ cup) Maple syrup
  • 113g (½ cup) Melted salted butter
  • 2 large Eggs
  • 2 tsp Vanilla extract
  • 240g (2 cups) Einkorn flour all-purpose
  • tsp Baking powder
  • ½ tsp Fine grain sea salt
  • ¼ tsp Baking soda
  • ½ cup Milk chocolate chips Plus extra for topping
  • ½ cup Chopped walnuts Plus extra for topping

Instructions
 

  • Combine the wet ingredients:  In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the mashed bananas, cooled melted butter, maple syrup, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
  • Mix the dry ingredients: In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the einkorn flour, baking powder, baking soda, and fine sea salt.
  • Mix wet and dry ingredients: Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  • Fold in mix ins: Gently fold in the chocolate chips and chopped walnuts until evenly distributed.
  • Rest the batter- Let the batter rest for 10 minutes. This gives the einkorn flour time to fully hydrate, resulting in a thicker batter and softer, more tender muffins.
  • Preheat and prepare the pan: While the batter rests, preheat the oven to 375°F. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners or lightly grease it with butter or oil.
  • Fill the muffin cups: Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups. Sprinkle a few extra chocolate chips and chopped walnuts on top, if desired.
  • Bake: Bake for 16–19 minutes, or until the tops are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs attached. Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
