Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a muffin tin with cooking spray or line with paper liners. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine 2 cups gluten-free flour blend, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1 teaspoon baking powder. Whisk to combine.
- In another bowl, mash 3 very ripe bananas with a fork. Then add in ¼ cup vegetable oil, 1 cup granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar, and 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract. Whisk to combine.
- Add wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir to mix.
- Stir in the 1 cup dark chocolate chips until completely combined.
- Spoon muffin batter into the muffin tin wells to get 12 regular-sized muffins.

- Let cool for 5 minutes and then transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling.
Notes
- Flour: I've only tested this recipe with Bob's Red Mill 1-to-1 Gluten-Free Baking Flour (in the blue bag), which already contains xanthan gum. I can't guarantee results with other blends.
- If you are vegan, use a vegan sugar that has not been processed with bone char. If you are unsure if the brand of granulated sugar you are using is vegan, you can be sure that organic sugars are not processed with bone char.
- If you are dairy-free or vegan, use vegan chocolate chips. Enjoy Life is free from the top 8 allergens.
- Apple cider vinegar is very necessary in this recipe! It helps replace the egg and leaven the muffins.
