Happy Easter! Welcome to March Muffin Madness (MMM) once again! This is the best March Madness, folks. It’s full of gluten-free muffin recipes, cookbooks, guidebooks, meal plans, subscriptions, food products that you need and love, and—this might be the best part—fabulous kitchen equipment! After all, the grand prize is a Blendtec!
Paleo Coconut Flour Banana Muffins from GAPS Diet Journey
Starlene of GAPS Diet Journey is sharing Paleo Coconut Flour Banana Muffins. She doesn’t call them “paleo,” but they do fit the requirements for paleo, which means they’re gluten free, grain free, dairy free, and refined sugar free. As Starlene shares GAPS diet-compliant recipes on her blog, you won’t be surprised that this recipe is also suitable for those on the GAPS diet. Last, it’s nut free!
Starlene’s description of these muffins is to the point: “This is one of my favorites, Banana Muffins. So easy to make, always turn out perfect and everyone loves them!” The only thing left is the making and enjoying of these muffins!
Starlene has some other muffin recipes you must check out, too.

Today’s Daily Giveaway
Starlene is a self-taught expert on using coconut flour, which is a grain-free and nut-free flour used for paleo, GAPS, and other special diets. She says: “Coconut flour is VERY UNIQUE when compared to other flours; however, you CAN discover how to work with coconut flour and you will be successful once you have all my tips and tricks for baking with coconut flour.” Note that she uses eggs in her coconut flour baking; only a few of her recipes will work with flax gel eggs or egg substitutes. All of her recipes, including today’s Banana Muffins recipe, are made using Tropical Traditions organic coconut flour (by the way, I totally agree with Starlene on using this brand of coconut flour). Thanks to Starlene for sponsoring this giveaway of her cookbooks! She also sponsored the giveaway of the silicone baking cups earlier in MMM.

Olivia says
Every time I’ve used coconut flour, the finished product has been so dry! I know that it absorbs a lot of liquid, but even when the recipe calls for a tonne of liquid it still seems to dry out…might have to play around with the recipes a bit.
Debbie Beck says
Made these, they were so good!!!! I added 1/2 c. chopped pecans, next time I’m adding mini choc. chips, instead of the pecans.
