Soft and fluffy, these healthy Gluten-Free Banana Pecan Muffins are great for work or school lunches! Nutritious and healthy recipe.
Mix all the dry ingredients together in a large mixing bowl.
Use a whisk to beat the eggs a bit, then whisk in the olive oil, and the rest of the wet ingredients in a medium mixing bowl.
Pre-heat oven to 375F. Add paper liners or use some coconut oil to rub the muffin tin.
Whisk the wet ingredients with the dry ones until combined, then add the pecans and gently fold in with a large rubber spatula.
Evenly distribute the batter in the 12 muffin cups. Add 1 half pecan on top (optional).
Bake at 375F for 20-22 minutes, or until nicely golden. Remove from the oven and let cool for about 5-8 minutes before taking out the muffins from the tin. You might need to run a butter knife along the edges to loosen the muffins if you didn't use liners.
In order to maximise health benefits, look for raw pecans instead of roasted/candied.
