Directions
Muffins- Prepare a muffin pan with paper cups and preheat oven to 350F.
- In a medium sized bowl mix all dry ingredients.
- In a separate bowl mash the bananas and add the rest of the wet ingredients. Whisk well and add to the dry ingredients until fully combined.
- Spoon batter evenly (3/4) into the muffin cups and bake in oven for about 25-30 minutes.
- Once the muffins are fully baked, transfer onto a cooling rack and let them cool down for frosting.
- For the chocolate frosting heat coconut milk in a small pot over low heat.
- Add soaked dates and simmer until dates are fully dissolved. Strain through a sieve and pour back into the pot.
- Turn off heat and add the chocolate (in pieces) into the coconut milk. Wait a couple minutes and then stir well until chocolate is fully dissolved.
- Pour chocolate coconut milk into a medium bowl and let sit in the refrigerator for about 10-20 minutes until chocolate mixture has thickened up.
- Transfer the mixture into a piping bag and frost the muffins with it.
- Enjoy immediately or store in fridge for up to 3 days. Take out of the fridge 20-30 minutes prior to eating.
