Gluten Free Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins

Gluten Free Living – 2016

Gluten Free Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins have to be one of my all time favorite muffin recipes. These lovely muffins start with one of my best Banana Chocolate Chip Muffin recipes, but I substituted gluten free flour for regular flour. The muffins turned out superbly, even beyond my expectations. They had a wonderful texture and all those chocolate chips softened with baking so the muffins were gooey, chocolaty and just spectacular. This is also a great way to use up overripe bananas.

I love chocolate chips in everything. Particularly in cookies, brownies, cakes, pancakes, breads and certainly in muffins. Of course, chocolate makes anything better, but I have to admit I’m partial to muffins or breads with chocolate chips in them. And anytime I can have pancakes with chocolate chips in them, I am in seventh heaven. Adding chocolate chips to muffins is the next best thing in my opinion.

A friend at our church opened up a new coffee shop a few months ago and I spoke to him about offering some gluten free pastries. I made a batch of these muffins specifically for him to try and serve. I texted him pictures and then brought some of the muffins to him the following day. I got a text back saying they were some of the most delicious muffins he’d ever eaten! On top of that, he asked for the recipe so he could make them for his coffee shop patrons regularly!

I hope you’ll give these fantastic Gluten Free Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins a try soon. They are rich and decadent and a wonderful choice for holiday breakfasts or any time you serve muffins for breakfast. They’re a great option for any in your family who have gluten intolerance. But after one bite of these muffins you’ll never believe they’re gluten free. 🙂
