I love a good blender cake. Oftentimes, I’ll use date caramelor maple syrup to sweeten them, but this time decided to go ham and just use sugar. I had a few freeze-dried strawberries left in the bag (I normally pack them in my little one’s lunch), so I threw them in as well, but you can leave them out if you don’t have. They did add a few nice flecks of color!

Cook Mode

Ingredients

3 ripe bananas, peeled
2 tablespoons freeze-dried strawberries
4 eggs
1 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon vanilla
½ teaspoon salt, plus more for sprinkling
1½ cups sugar, plus more for sprinkling
1½ teaspoons baking soda
Juice of ½ lemon
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup chocolate chips, plus more for the top

Directions

Add the bananas, strawberries, eggs, oil, vanilla, salt, and sugar to a blender and pulse until smooth.
Stir in the baking soda, lemon juice, and flour, and blend again, just until the flour is incorporated.
Line two muffin pans with liners and portion out the batter so each tin in the first pan is ¾ full.
Once the first pan is full, mix ¼ cup chocolate chips into the remaining batter.
Portion it into the muffin pan and top with extra chocolate chips.
Sprinkle the tops with sugar, then add a tiny sprinkle of salt over everything.
Bake for 30 minutes, until the muffins spring back when you push on them lightly.
