If
you are making your own coconut milk from powder, try this: instead
of 2 cups a water, use 2 ½ cups and add one half cup of coconut milk
powder and the konjac flour. Do this right before you add the wet
ingredients to the mixture for mixing. Otherwise, use canned
coconut milk and the two cups of water with konjac flour. Mix the
went ingredients together.
Combine all the dry ingredients: Omegasentials/ground flax, coconut flour, salt, baking
powder, baking powder, nutmeg, cinnamon, ginger, and cloves; set
aside. Mix together (with a mixer on medium high) the wet
ingredients, plus the
eggs, bananas, and melted butter/coconut oil; and fold in
the first dry ingredient mixture. Mix in the chocolate chips. We use
Free Trade extra large milk chocolate chips, but you can use your
favorites. Free Trade means that the workers earn a living wage and
that no children have been sold into forced labor camps.
Grease muffin pans with a combination of lecithin and coconut oil.
Nothing sticks to this combination.
Bake
at 340 for about 20 - 25 minutes depending on the size of
the muffin. If they are small, 20 minutes is about enough.
If they are HUGE, sometimes 30 - 35 minutes is needed. When you press the tops and they bounce
back, they're done.
Notes: If you are using NuStevia,
do not believe the packaging when it says 4 tablespoons equals a cup
of sugar. Maybe less than three equals a cup of sugar. This stuff is
potent. I don't think they experimented much with recipes.
For every ounce of coconut flour, a recipe
usually calls for one egg, because coconut flour has no gluten and
the egg acts as the gluten. In this recipe we are using Konjac Flour
as the gluten. It's sticky and holds everything in place.
