Healthy Chunky Monkey Muffins

These Healthy Chunky Monkey Muffins are paleo, refined sugar-free, gluten-free and dairy-free. The recipe is so easy that anyone can make these muffins!

I used only bananas as a sweetener in this recipe. The riper the bananas are that you are using, the sweeter the muffins will be. However, if you like really sweet muffins, feel free to add, for example, some coconut sugar or maple syrup to them. I love dark chocolate. But if you prefer milk chocolate, you can use that instead!;) The walnuts in the recipe bring a nice crunchy element to the muffins. You could use also pecans or any other nuts you like in these muffins. Or if you don’t like nuts at all, just leave them out! My recipes are always very adjustable, so you can modify them into your liking.
