Ingredients

1 cup mashed very ripe banana
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
Optional 1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup cooked cooled quinoa
1/3 cup rolled oats certified gluten-free, as needed
Optional: 6 crosswise banana slices
Optional: 3 tablespoons dark chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375F (190C). Line 6 cups of a standard size muffin pan with foil or paper liners (or spray with nonstick spray if you do not need the recipe 100% oil-free).
In a medium bowl, stir together the mashed bananas, cocoa powder and salt until well blended. Stir in the quinoa and oats until blended.
Divide batter equally between prepared cups, smoothing tops. If desired, press a banana slice into the top of each cup of batter, and/or sprinkle with a few chocolate chips.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until the surface of the muffins appears dry and the centers of the muffins are set.
Cool completely in plan on a wire rack. Remove muffins from pans.

Notes

Storage: Store the completely cooled muffins in an airtight container at (cool) room temperature for 2 days, the refrigerator for 1 week, or the freezer for up to 6 months.
