Ingredients

    1/2 cup butter (1 stick), softened
    2 tablespoons coconut oil, softened
    1/2 cup unrefined whole cane organic sugar (Sucanat)
    1/4 cup agave nectar
    2 eggs
    3 large ripe bananas, mashed
    2 tablespoons unsweetened applesauce
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    2 cups stone ground whole wheat flour
    1 teaspoon baking soda
    1 teaspoon cinnamon
    1/2 teaspoon sea salt
    1/4 cup ground flaxseeds
    1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line muffin pans with paper muffin cups or coat with coconut oil.

In a large bowl, cream butter, coconut oil, and sugar with an electric mixer. Add the eggs, bananas, applesauce, agave nectar, and vanilla. Beat well to thoroughly combine.

In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, baking soda, flaxseeds, cinnamon, and salt.

Stir the banana mixture into the flour mixture and mix well. At this point the batter will be fairly thick. Stir in chopped walnuts. Pour the batter into the muffin pan, filling each muffin cup about 3/4 full.

Bake 20-25 minutes, or until a knife inserted into center comes out clean. Let cool and enjoy!
