Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups white whole-wheat flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon kosher or sea salt, and 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon.
- Add 2 cups wheat bran, 1/2 cup coconut palm sugar, and 1/2 cup walnut pieces to the dry mixture and whisk to combine.
- In a medium bowl, mash 1 banana with a fork until mostly smooth.
- Add the 2 large eggs (whipped/ lightly beaten), 1 cup Greek yogurt (fat-free), 1/2 cup molasses (or substitute sorghum or honey), and 1 teaspoon vanilla to the mashed banana; stir to combine.
- Add 1/2 cup melted coconut oil to the wet mixture and stir until incorporated.
- Dice the second banana into small chunks and fold them into the wet mixture.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently with a spatula just until the dry ingredients are moistened and no large streaks of flour remain; do not overmix. The batter should be thick.
- Divide the batter evenly among the 12 prepared muffin liners, filling each so the batter extends slightly above the liners.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean, about 25 minutes.
- Let muffins cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before storing in an airtight container. These muffins are very moist and often taste better the second day.

Tip: Do not refrigerate as this tends to dry them out. Feel free to freeze muffins after completely cooling.
