Coconut Flour Banana Nut Muffins

February 27, 2015 by jessfuel 17 Comments

Gluten-Free Banana Nut Muffins

Happy Friday! What are your plans for the weekend? I finally finished painting my office, and now I’m planning to repaint and DIY-ify the bookshelf in there. We are also going to do some work on the garden, of course, and belatedly celebrate my birthday!

thirty-one 31 candles

My birthday was last weekend, but I was out of town so Nick and I never really go to do anything.

I went to my first ever blog conference, Build Your Blog 2015. It was fun! I don’t think I learned quite as much as I was hoping to, but it was still a great experience and I came home with a rather lengthy to-do list of things to work on. There’s a lot I’m not doing that I probably should be! I think if I go to another conference, I’ll try one aimed specifically at food bloggers. BYB was for all different kinds of bloggers, and while some parts of it were helpful, others were not really relevant.

The highlight of the conference was meeting two of my blog friends, Gayle from Pumpkin ‘N Spice and Annie from Maebells.

And since the conference was only Friday and Saturday, I got to spend my birthday skiing. Not a bad deal!

I had a lot of cooking to catch up on this week when I got home. Breakfast was the first order of business. Along with a Quinoa Frittata, I made another batch of coconut flour muffins, this time Banana Nut. I’m so loving coconut flour.

These maybe aren’t the prettiest muffins ever. But they’re super delicious. I’ll be making another batch just as soon as my new batch of bananas ripens, and I may try adding chocolate chips along with the walnuts. Because who doesn’t love chocolate?

    Skiing sounds like a great birthday day! And it is always good when you can extend the celebrations in my mind. Enjoy round two!

    Happy belated 31st! And it would’ve been so nice to see you ladies at the conference. I’m definitely going to try getting to one later this year! These muffins sound so delicious, too — I need to bake with coconut flour more!

    Well happy birthday to you miss Jess! And so very jealous you got to hang out with Annie and Gayle! Wouldn’t it be so fun if we all got together for a girls weekend in some fun city? I would love that! These coconut flout banana nut muffins look great! I had an awful experience with coconut flour this morning trying to make pancakes. I tried subbing it out 1 for 1 ratio of my normal pancake recipe. Big mistake! But this recipe has inspired me to keep at it and give coconut flour another try : )

      Oh no!! Yeah, coconut flour definitely needs TONS of eggs to hold it together! But once you get it right, it’s awesome! I’m hooooooping that someday there will be a fun conference in San Fran or somewhere up that way and maybe a few of us can meet up!!
