Serving: 12 muffins

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 180C and line a muffin baking pan with 12 cupcake liners. 

2. In a medium sized bowl, mash bananas and whisk together the sugar, vegan butter, and vanilla extract. 

3. Stir in milk, then add the rest of the ingredients (flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, salt), and mix until just combined but do not over mix. Mix in peanut butter. The batter won’t be very thick, sort of runny and that’s okay. 

4. Add the rest of the ingredients (coconut flour, baking powder, salt), and mix until just combined but do not over mix. Mix in pistachio butter. 

5. Pour the batter into liners, and bake for 18-20 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. When completely chilled, decorate the banana muffins with pistachio butter. 

6. Flip the muffins upside down and put a marshmallow on each of it, put it back into the oven for 5min. Then, decorate the marshmallow with chocolate and draw some scary faces.
