Banana Chocolate Chunk Gingerbread Muffins // gluten free // treatswithatwist.com

My Banana Chocolate Chunk Gingerbread Muffins are such a fun holiday morning treat. A healthy gluten free banana muffin made with nutty teff flour and lots of spices is amped up with fresh ginger, molasses, and chopped dark chocolate. It is so surreal to even be saying this but: it’s DECEMBER and I’m moving in four days! What?! I don’t know about you, but I am ready for some Christmas … [Read more...]
