nut milk or rice milk of your choice

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flours, sugar, baking soda, baking powder and sea salt.
-
In a medium mixing bowl, mix the olive oil with the mashed bananas until well combined, then mix in the milk and the apple cider vinegar.
-
Mix the wet ingredients with the flour mix, then add the chocolate chips and mix gently with a large rubber spatula.
-
Distribute the mixture equally into 10 lined muffin cups (you want it to be filled to the rim or slightly more), and bake at 375 F for approximately 28-30 minutes, or until golden on top and springy to the touch. Transfer to a cooling rack for 5 minutes.
-
Unmold the muffins. Serve them warm or at room temperature.
They'll keep well at room temperature for a day or so, depending on how hot your kitchen is. If it's hot, put them in a paper bag in an airtight container or plastic bag, and keep in the fridge for up to 4 days. You can also put them in plastic bags and freeze.
