    These Gluten Free Banana Walnut Muffins are so stinkin good and easy to make! Flourless muffins are a go to in my house, they are loaded with healthy fats and ingredients that you will likely already have on hand. These muffins only take 10 minutes to prep which means they are a great addition to your weekly meal prepping!

    This recipe was sponsored by Heinen’s, my favorite grocery store in Ohio! I can’t forget to mention, kids love them too. If you enjoy this recipe, you will also like my Gluten Free Apple Muffins, Gluten-Free Blackberry Muffins, and Gluten Free Pumpkin Muffins as well. If you love all things banana like I do, check out my Gluten Free Banana Cake too!

    What Makes These Gluten Free Banana Muffins So Good?

    • They are super simple to make!
    • Secondly, they made for a great snack, breakfast, or even dessert. 
    • Third, these gluten free muffins freeze super well which means that I love to batch make them. I like to make 3-4 batches and freeze them.

    Gluten Free Banana Walnut Muffin Ingredients: 

    • Nut butter-Any kind will work! I love using almond butter for this recipe.
    • Eggs-To help bind everything together. 
    • Flax seeds-This adds some extra fiber and in addition to the eggs helps bind everything together, 
    • Applesauce-This is a binder too, and it helps sweeten these gluten free banana muffins!
    • Banana-For the banana flavor.
    • Maple syrup-To add some sweetness. 
    • Walnuts-For a nice nutty crunch!
    • Apple cider vinegar-To help these muffins rise. 
    • Cooking oil spray-To prevent the muffins from sticking.

    How To Make:

    • First, preheat the oven to 350. 
    • Next, place all ingredients in a bowl together and mix well. 
    • If you are using paper muffin liners, line the cupcake tray with the paper liners. If you are using a silicone muffin tray, spray the pan with cooking oil spray. 
    • Now, divide the batter between the 12 muffin cups. 
    • Bake for 25 minutes. 

    What Kind Of Muffin Tray Should I Use?

    • I love these silicone ones HERE because the muffins literally just pop out and they require minimal clean up. 

    Can I Freeze These Muffins?

    • Yes! I love to batch bake them and freeze them to use at a later time. I find that if you freeze the cupcake papers, they will collect a ton of water so allow the muffins to cool prior to freezing them and remove the liners.
