Directions
Preheat the oven to 350°F and grease or line a muffin tin with liner papers.
In a small bowl, mix the ground chia, water and ¼ tsp baking powder. Let sit for 15 minutes until it forms a sticky liquid.
Melt the coconut oil in a bain marie.
In a large bowl, mash the bananas using a fork. Add the ground chia mixture, maple syrup, vanilla extract, coconut oil and dates.
In a separate bowl, mix the flour, salt, the remaining 2 tsp baking powder and the nutmeg.
Combine all ingredients and stir well until it becomes a smooth homogenized mixture.
Pour the mixture into muffin cups.
Decorate with a banana slice and sprinkle with chia seeds.
Bake for 15 to 20 minutes.
Remove from oven and let cool for a few minutes before removing the muffins from the tin.
