Do I need to make a flax egg for these muffins?

Yes, the recipe calls for 1 tablespoon of ground flax mixed with 3 tablespoons of water to act as a binder, replacing traditional eggs in this vegan recipe.

Can I use all-purpose flour instead of gluten-free oat and almond flours?

The recipe is specifically developed with gluten-free oat and almond flours for texture and dietary needs; substituting with all-purpose flour would alter the consistency and may require adjustments.

What if I don't have coffee extract for the muffins?

While coffee extract enhances the flavor, you can omit it if unavailable, though the coffee taste will be slightly less intense. Ensure your brewed coffee is strong to compensate.

How should I store leftover Banana Coffee Muffins?

Store cooled muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to a week. They can also be frozen for up to 2 months.

Can I add chocolate chips or nuts to these muffins?

Yes, you can fold in additional mix-ins like vegan chocolate chips or chopped walnuts with the dry ingredients before filling the muffin tins. Cacao nibs are suggested as an optional topping.
