Chocolate Chip Avocado Mini Muffins

After my Chocolate Avocado cake disappeared into the bellies of my boys in ONE day, I just had to bake something more with this creamy combo.

I love how an avocado acts as the perfect fat once smoothed out, I didn’t need any oil for this recipe.

I decided to use my Vitamix for this recipe because it’s my favourite kitchen toy and it gets the avocado to a pureed state without any little pieces.

Here’s the recipe: 

Chocolate Chip Avocado Mini Muffins

Ingredients: 

1 ripe avocado

1 ripe banana

1/4 cup raw honey

7 tbsp unsweetened organic apple sauce (the amount in a snack pack cup)

2 tbsp raw cacao powder

2 tbsp coconut sugar

1/4 tsp baking soda

1/4 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp sea salt

    This looks great! Can I used another flour besides Millet? Buckwheat, Spelt or Coconut Flour?

  2. Rita says:

    These sound delish. I wanted to know what the millet flour could be substituted with.thanks

  3. Jen says:

    can I use spelt flour in place of millet flour?

    • I haven’t tried it Jen, but I assume that it wouldn’t be a problem. If you do try it please let us know!

      • Jennifer says:

        So I made them yesterday with oat flour and they turned out ok! Next time I will try coconut or spelt and see what the difference is. If using oats again I would pulse them longer for a finer flour consistency :)
