Add the ground flaxseeds and water to a large bowl. Mix, and set aside for 5 minutes to gel.
Lightly grease or line a muffin tin and preheat oven to 375°F (190°C)*.
Add the bananas to the flaxseed mixture and mash well.
Whisk in the sugar, applesauce, coconut oil, and vanilla.
Add the cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt, and mix again.
Then add the flour, mixing until partly combined. Then gently fold in the chocolate. Be careful not to over-mix
Evenly divide the batter into the prepared muffin tin. Top each muffin with extra chocolate chunks, if desired, and bake on the middle rack of the oven for about 15 - 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack to cool completely. Enjoy!

I really enjoyed these muffins, they're the perfect sweet treat. The chocolate complements the banana. I froze them and reheated in the air fryer. They would get crispy around the edges and maintain their fluffiness on the inside.

Hello i wonder do we really have to add granulated sugar? I’m on diet now and with my thyroid I try to eat less sugar. Also does the gluten free flour works ? Thank you in advance
PUL Team - July 3, 2024, 1:10 a.m.
Hi Jess, you could reduce the amount of granulated sugar or explore alternative sweeteners like coconut sugar if you'd like. For gluten-free flour, a mix of gluten-free types of flour usually works better than using just one gluten-free flour on its own. We often hear positive reviews with Bob's Red Mill 1-to-1 gluten-free flour but we haven't experimented with it in this recipe. In case you're interested, our banana tahini muffins are gluten-free, don't use granulated sugar, and are one of our favourite alternatives if you're using the app: https://www.pickuplimes.com/r… 🤩

Hey Vaishali, we've heard positive reviews for extra mashed banana, sweet potato, and unsweetened soy-based yogurt in place of applesauce. Another pureed fruit or silken tofu may also work 🤗

Hi Vaishali! I have used pumpkin puree in previous baking recipes and I’m going to try it tonight in this recipe. I don’t normally have applesauce on hand but I have some homemade pumpkin puree in the freezer and I just have to defrost it. It has worked well in multiple other recipes. Happy baking! 😁

Celest Hilton - May 19, 2024, 5:28 a.m.
We love these muffins, but would love a healthier option with the same flavor. Would it taste similar if we used rolled oats or oat flour instead?
PUL Team - May 19, 2024, 3:49 p.m.
Hey Celest, so glad to hear you're enjoying these muffins! It's hard to say about the swap without testing it ourselves, as oats are not a one-for-one substitute for all-purpose flour. Oats absorb more liquid, which might make the muffins too gummy or too dry. With that said, I'll welcome you to try our One-bowl Oatmeal Blueberry Muffin recipe which uses oat flour exclusively :)

I saw another comment that said if you are using a very ripe banana use less sugar, so I did. Even with one banana it is very sweet. I don't have flax seeds so I used chia and it turned out fine. My toaster oven doesn't have 375 so I baked at 400f for 20 mins. These are very filling and delicious snack. Next time I make these I will make sure I mash the banana first before adding the chia egg as it was harder to do lol.

This is a family hit! We don't make them fully vegan (use semi-sweet chocolate chips) and sometimes an egg if we don't have applesauce on hand. But they are a great way to use up our extra ripe bananas when we want a chocolatey treat instead of banana bread.

These are def a treat like a cupcake :) I didnt have 3 bananas, so I subbed about 1/2 cup of pumpkin puree. I also added a bit of water since my batter was dry. These are super easy and tasty. Nuke for 15 seconds, and they are just perfect! They are extremely banana-y, so even with 2 bananas, the flavor of the chocolate was just slight. I would experiment with more pumpkin and less banana next time to make these a tad less sweet and banana-forward.

If I don’t have ground flaxseed, can I use whole flaxseeds instead? If not, what are good substitutes?
PUL Team - Nov. 1, 2022, 6:30 a.m.
Hey there, Sharon, the ground flaxseeds form a gel when combined with water that helps the muffins stick together. Whole flaxseeds won't form this gel because of their outer layer so we wouldn't recommend using them. If you have access to a high-power blender or coffee grinder, you could grind the whole flaxseeds into a powder. Alternatively, you can substitute the ground flaxseeds with another ground seed, such as ground chia seeds 🙂

I tried making muffins but they always end up uncooked in the middle. The outside bakes to the point of burning whilst the inside is hollow. I use a oven like air fryer. I omitted the oil and sugar, just ajustes the recipe to my dietary requirements. What am I doing wrong? I thought it was the tins but when I used ceramic ones the same thing happened. Am I overloading the fryer? Does the expiration of baking powder matter? Thank you
PUL Team - Sept. 25, 2022, 1:46 a.m.
Hey there, Ags, thanks for taking the time to share. If the outside is overbaked and the inside is underbaked we suspect the oven temperature is too high. This could cause the outside to crisp up too much without enough time for the inside to cook. We hope this helps for now 😊

Salome - Sept. 18, 2022, 8:08 p.m.
Very tasty! And goo-y! When I baked them 15 minutes , took them out of the oven and let them cool down and got the cakes out of their siliconmuffinshapes, the bottoms were very soggy, some parts even stuck to the bottom of the muffintin. Did I grease the tins too much? I ended up flipping the cakes upside down and baked them for another 15 minutes, which helped but the tops on the bottom got a bit dark. Any tips?
PUL Team - Sept. 19, 2022, 6:15 p.m.
Hey there, Salome, not enough baking time or not removing baked muffins from the tin to cool can promote a soggy bottom. For baking, the muffins may take longer than 15 minutes to bake depending on your oven. We'd recommend baking until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
For cooling, did the muffins cool in the tin or on a cooling rack? When muffins cool too long in the tin, it can promote a soggier texture if the steam can't escape. We can let the muffins cool slightly before transferring them to a cooling rack to avoid this. We hope this helps for now and so glad the muffins were still enjoyed 🤗

Since we are already using so many substitutes (apple sauce, banana), the texture probably isn't as fluffy as a traditional muffin, but I prefer moist and less sugary muffins with chocolate. To me, vegan cooking/baking is not about replicating a traditional recipe, but to embrace new flavors and texture.

Delish! Delish! Delicious! I'm at it again! :D I made one substitute and reduced the amount; I used a melted butter instead of an oil and they were perfect! Moist, chocolatey, gooey, and fluffy. Smelled fabulous. The banana undertone (used two since that's all I had) was wonderful. Next time, I'll try the coconut oil :) Taking them to work for a coworker's bday! So thankful and excited! :)
Just a fun anecdote: While having a lovely conversation with a grocery attendant about a few ingredients I was looking for, we touched based on tahini and what one could do with it. I've been using it in overnight oats going on three weeks now and with a few other dishes. I showed her my favorite brand and typed in 'tahini' in the search bar of the PUL website and she was blown away by the beauty of it all! I scrolled up and down and showed her the feature of the recipe scale, filter features, and the photos!! She was captivated by it all that she told me to stop! HA! This was after she had told me how hard it was to keep her paycheck since she works at a fun grocery store. Thanks PUL for all the hard work, dedication, joy, and beauty that you put into this mission.

These are the most amazing muffins! Even though I don't make them fully vegan, double up on the cocoa and use less sugar (I think the bananas are sweet enough to just use 100g sugar), this is my favourite muffin recipe. They are ALWAYS a hit with everyone; people especially comment on the texture which is moist and fluffy. Even my slightly critical Dad asked me to send him the recipe. :)
I usually don't love chocolate-banana anything but I'd be lying if I said I haven't eaten several of these when I got peckish... They're simply divine.

Hi Gunja! We're so happy to hear. Halving the recipe and using a mini muffin pan may be the easiest way. We'd suggest cutting down the baking time, perhaps to ~7 mins. Using a toothpick or fork may be helpful to know when they're ready as the baking time will be less 😀

Hi PUL! I'm trying to create healthy snacks for my kids to avoid giving them snacks with preservatives in them. So THANK YOU so much for this muffin recipe! What "grease" did you use to grease the muffin tin in the video? and was that regular paper napkin that you used to grease it? Is your muffin tin a non-stick one? If not, what type is it?
PUL Team - April 7, 2021, 6:29 a.m.
Hey there! A vegetable oil would work for greasing the muffin tin. A regular napkin as shown in the video works well for helping to evenly spread the oil. Alternatively, a reusable napkin, pastry brush, or muffin tin liner would work. The muffin tin we use can be found at https://amzn.to/35oLjj3. We hope this helps and happy baking 😀

Discussion & Rating
Delicious and easy to make (quick, too!). Shared with friends and they all raved!
loved these, but put a bit more chocolate in. didn’t have apple sauce, subbed for soja jogurt 😋
Made a batch with 50% less sugar for my daughter’s birthday party. ALL KIDS AND ADULTS LOVE THEM!
I really enjoyed these muffins, they're the perfect sweet treat. The chocolate complements the banana. I froze them and reheated in the air fryer. They would get crispy around the edges and maintain their fluffiness on the inside.
These are very easy to make and very very good. Swapped out the apple sauce for yogurt (didn’t have apple sauce) and added a little bit of runny peanut butter to the mix and they were awesome!
Hello i wonder do we really have to add granulated sugar? I’m on diet now and with my thyroid I try to eat less sugar. Also does the gluten free flour works ? Thank you in advance
This was the easiest thing to make! And a great snack for the kids! We gave this a try at night, hoping it wouldn’t take too long, and were delighted by the results!
Always a staple for me. Love the ability to make treats and control the level of sweetness and make from scratch vs store bought or highly processed. 🥰🙌
Hi Sadia, what can I use instead of applesauce in this receipie?
We love these muffins, but would love a healthier option with the same flavor. Would it taste similar if we used rolled oats or oat flour instead?
These were delicious!
I used 2/3 of the sugar (half a cup in 12 muffin portion). They turned out plenty sweet and fluffy and moist. They rose well too. 🧁
I love these! I recommend sifting the coco powder. Maybe everyone already knows that??
Hey how many flax egg is this equal in eggs in real life??
These are really delicious. Thanks for this recipe.
This is one of my comfort dessert for my work lunches. I make them again and again and again. They are just sooooo good!
I saw another comment that said if you are using a very ripe banana use less sugar, so I did. Even with one banana it is very sweet. I don't have flax seeds so I used chia and it turned out fine. My toaster oven doesn't have 375 so I baked at 400f for 20 mins. These are very filling and delicious snack. Next time I make these I will make sure I mash the banana first before adding the chia egg as it was harder to do lol.
Just popping in to leave 5 stars. I made these muffins several times now and they're always a hit!
Super delicious muffin shaped brownies as we call them! My kiddos love them!
These muffins were so easy to put together. I was sceptical about the amount the sugar and apple sauce but I trusted the process. These muffins are great for an after dinner snack when ideally I'm feeling for a whole chocolate cake LOL.
So yum and easy! I never baked anything successful before this.
Hi I made this and it’s 👩🍳💋. I’m not vegan though so added 2 eggs instead of flax egg and a cup of regular milk. I DEFEINITELY reccomend this recipe as well as every other on the channel, website, and app to anyone of any type! Btw I’m a Californian!
Delicious and so easy!!
My husband keeps stealing all the muffins when I make these! These muffins are a staple in our household.
Made them many times! If your Bananas are more rippend put less sugar
My Favorit, made them many times. Watch out for very ripe Bananas, if there not totally yellow then the banana is sweeter, put less sugar, if not it’s sweeter
Great muffins! Easy to follow along and great snack.
Loved them!!
Absolutely delicious muffins! They seem to be even better the next day after setting in an airtight container over night.
These are so good! I made them with whole wheat flour and used 1 egg instead of an apple purée, ‼️‼️definitely use LESS sugar since there's lot of natural sweetness from bananas in the recipe
My favorite muffins. I used to make these for coworkers a few years ago and they all raved about them.
Great if you're in the mood for something indulgent. Although nowadays, I would want to make it less sweet by replacing the sugar with a more wholesome source of sweetness.
These are so good! I just made them for the first time, the only thing I did differently was using margarine instead of the coconut oil, and I didn't add chocolate pieces too. They had to bake for about 25 minutes, but they turned out really moist and perfect!!! Ty PUL for making vegan sweets taste like this!
I used one egg instead of flaxseed and it is still perfect and delicious 🤩
Made these this morning they were really moist and good just too sweet.. think next time would do less sugar or would honey or agave syrup work? Also wondered about using wheat flour
Surprisingly light and fluffy. Such a good muffin recipe.
Absolutely love that recipe 😍 so nice for breakfast, snack and dessert !
I replaced the all-purpose flour by 1 t. Spelled flour + 1/2 t. Almond flour. That took 35 min cooking but was delicious!
Would you have a gluten-free version to suggest?
Thanks again for the delightful recipes you and your team are creating 🔥💜
Hands down the best vegan muffins j tried. I have been making over and over for about 3 years and nobody can tell they are vegan.
Hey hey dear Sadia and strong team ! I'd really like to make those babies oggi for the 1st time, but jus been to the shop ieri and dont feel like going again - but don't have applesauce nor coconut oil - how could i replace them so that the consistency is still good ? Thanks heaps!
Really enjoyed making these for a picnic and loved them, so happy with the outcome!
Would it work if you froze the batter then baked it frozen the next day?
Incredible! I didn’t have apple sauce so replaced with cooked sweet potato. Also used coconut sugar. So so good!
Gorgeous! I already made them twice and both times were perfect. Love them 💛
Absolutely delicious. The best part is that I already had all of the ingredients!
So delicious and decadent! Easy ingredients I already had. I am definitely using this recipe again!
Super yummy! I used almost fully brown bananas, and the muffins were very very sweet. I also swapped the white flour for WW and it was great! Next time I’ll add 1/4 cup more cocoa, and 1/4 cup less flour. I’ll also probably reduce the amount of sugar next time. Thanks for a great recipe!
Deeeelicious!!! I subbed for oat flour 👌👌
The previous night I took a few frozen muffins out of the freezer, so in the morning me and my family had a delicious breakfast to start the week. Perfect recipe from all points of view: easy to follow, to make and great end result
These were delicious! I only had coconut sugar and I cut the sugar down to 1/2 cup, still plenty sweet for us. Next time I might throw in a few chopped walnuts. Thank you for the wonderful recipe.
Excellent! Used 1/2 cup sugar instead of 3/4 and still sweet enough!
Super tasty! Added on my favorite recipes.
Wow these are amazing!!! My husband loved them. These muffins will probably become a staple in our home. I used brown sugar instead of granulated sugar and subbed banana for applesauce. Thank you Sadia and team!
My go to muffin recipe, just love it! Everybody is always super impressed with how gooey and tasty they are! 😋 Kids and adults love them!!
Just tried them today! So delicious! And the recipe was super easy to follow. Though I got 18 with the measurements for 12, but no complaints there! We’ll be making these again! Thank you!
I’ve made these twice in 2 days if that says anything 😂 We offered some from the first batch to our neighbor and she loved them so much that she asked if she could have more for her dinner guests! So we gave her the rest and whipped up more today 🤗
Super chocolatey and moist and delicious, and I can see myself making them again and again.
Hi. Is there a substitute for applesauce?
Soo yummy! 🤎
Delicious delicious yumm I used a little less apple sauce cause I didn’t have the required amount but the were still delicious. Can you do a substitution list?
As every PUL recipes also this one is amazing. Highly suggested
They’re so much softer and moister than I expected. Definitely a win!
Loging the app and how easy it is to follow a recipe. Tried the double chocolate muffins today with my 5yo daughter, she was engaged every step
These are a hit in our house and a great way to use up leftover bananas 😊
Are there any non-oil alternatives to the coconut oil in this recipe that you'd recommend? Like additional banana or vegan yogurt for instance?
This was so delicious!!!! Very filling as well which I loved. My little brothers loved it, very nice and moist, and soft texture! Will be making again!
Those muffins are great! We make then often and anyone who tries them raves. Thanks for the many recipes we have tried and loved. Your site is so easy to use !
Jackie
This is a family hit! We don't make them fully vegan (use semi-sweet chocolate chips) and sometimes an egg if we don't have applesauce on hand. But they are a great way to use up our extra ripe bananas when we want a chocolatey treat instead of banana bread. I love that it gets all mixed up in one bowl for less dishes and its easy enough that my kids love to help out.
Moving on to test some of the soup recipes next!
These sound great and Hu is my favorite chocolate right now and I can’t believe it’s the one you linked. Wow. Making these tomorrow!
These are def a treat like a cupcake :) I didnt have 3 bananas, so I subbed about 1/2 cup of pumpkin puree. I also added a bit of water since my batter was dry. These are super easy and tasty. Nuke for 15 seconds, and they are just perfect! They are extremely banana-y, so even with 2 bananas, the flavor of the chocolate was just slight. I would experiment with more pumpkin and less banana next time to make these a tad less sweet and banana-forward.
perfect lazy sunday dessert ✨🧁
Wish there wasn't as much white flour in this recipe. 😌
Superb recipe
If I don’t have ground flaxseed, can I use whole flaxseeds instead? If not, what are good substitutes?
Saw your story and made it right away. Such a treat! It's like banana bread and chocolate, what's not to like?
Is there something we can use instead of the applesauce?
I tried these with your chocolate frosting and they were divine! Thank you so much!
(frosting: https://www.pickuplimes.com/recipe/vegan-chocolate-buttercream-frosting-843)
I tried making muffins but they always end up uncooked in the middle. The outside bakes to the point of burning whilst the inside is hollow. I use a oven like air fryer.
I omitted the oil and sugar, just ajustes the recipe to my dietary requirements.
What am I doing wrong?
I thought it was the tins but when I used ceramic ones the same thing happened.
Am I overloading the fryer? Does the expiration of baking powder matter?
Thank you
Very tasty! And goo-y!
When I baked them 15 minutes , took them out of the oven and let them cool down and got the cakes out of their siliconmuffinshapes, the bottoms were very soggy, some parts even stuck to the bottom of the muffintin.
Did I grease the tins too much?
I ended up flipping the cakes upside down and baked them for another 15 minutes, which helped but the tops on the bottom got a bit dark.
Any tips?
I used 2/3 of the sugar suggested and it was still good! I would say I used chocolate that was too dark so it made the muffins bitter. But otherwise a really good vegan chocolate banana muffin recipe.
So good! I used frozen bananas, the result was great!
I did this recipe multiple times, it's always a success. These muffins are DELICIOUS! Thank you.
Recommend!! Best recipe when you have bananas that are not looking the best. Or even if you just want a good banana/chocolate treat.
So good!! No fluffy I made little mini ones too.
