How To Make Oil-free Banana Fig Muffins With Date-Coconut Drizzle [Vegan]

Oil-free Banana Fig Muffins with Date-Coconut Drizzle
  1. Preheat the oven to 350F and lightly oil a 6-cup mini-cake pan (or use a 12-cup muffin tin or a loaf pan).
  2. In a small bowl, soak the figs in enough boiling water to cover and let soak for about 30 minutes.  Drain the figs and coarsely chop.
  3. In another small bowl, bananas, nut milk, vanilla, peanut butter, and maple sugar.  Set aside.
  4. In a large bowl, combine the flours, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, and stevia powder.  Stir in the wet ingredients and mix until thoroughly combined – then stir in the figs and nuts.  Divide the batter among the mini-cake tins.  Bake the cakes for about 30-35 minutes. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then remove to a wire rack to cool completely.
  5. Divide date-coconut drizzle on the cakes and serve.
Date-Coconut Drizzle
  1. Place all ingredients in a blender and process until smooth.
  2. You want a drizzlable consistency, so add water as necessary.
  3. Make this oil-free by omitting the coconut oil and using less water.
  4. The drizzle won’t firm up as much as it sits, but it will be just as tasty.
